late solar
Don’t live at home if you go to amazon tbh
verbal beacon

late solar
Amazon pay and res value is just too much to give up here imo

You can visit your gf like every other weekend with zon money

Like genuinely O'Fallon is so bad
late solar
It’s a 3 hr flight
late solar
I’ve been w my gf for a little over a year so i can kinda relate
verbal beacon
Like genuinely O'Fallon is so bad
Why?
outer patio
Why?
Nothing to do there, racist people, just dry in general
Just trust me bro
Its bad
late solar
if it was like tesla or smth u could make the case MAYBE but idt u should take mastercard
outer patio
STL is not even a fun city
late solar
is ur gf still in college or smth @verbal beacon
why is she in ofallon missouri
oh
hmm
wait
then take amazon
you both have enough money to visit one another and she can try to move after a year
try the bay or smth
or both of u try to go nyc
?
cerulean shell
isnt nyc cooked
verbal beacon
Yeah but idk how long that’ll take
late solar
How long have you guys been together?
clever latch
isnt nyc cooked
no
late solar
isnt nyc cooked
no
cerulean shell
what do they have there
late solar
hmm dang
it’s just like I get it
but mastercard is so much worse for your career and etc than amazon
clever latch
i feel like you will be severely stunting your career growth by not going to amazon
late solar
and like she probably knows this to some extent as well
but i get that it’s still hard
I still think despite all factors
you should go to amazon for a year
and then try to relocate offices or something
or she should try to hop to a different job after a year
or both of u try to hop idk
it’s $150-200 round trip flight from ofallon to seattle
u can def easily afford like 5 per month on amazon salary
outer patio
what r u gonna do if she breaks up with u and then u realize that u took Mastercard over Amazon
^crazy hypo
but like
I wouldn't have a gf change your whole career trajectory ngl
late solar
it’s 3 hr flight as well, nothing too bad
can take it after work on fri and spend the weekend together and be back for work on mon, esp if ur team is more chill. she can visit u as well, esp if her workdays are more chill or flexible.
outer patio
If she really loves u she would understand
late solar
If she really loves u she would understand
the pay and res value diff is too big to give up and she prob knows too yeah
verbal beacon
I’ve heard ppl saying another wave coming in Jan
digital cedar
@verbal beacon for what its worth, no one in our org got cut that just started
late solar
I feel like the probability of you getting fired / pipped in your first year is low
but idk maybe amazon can find a way to amaze me
slim crow
Is your gf tryna stay there or what
slim crow
Yeah I’d go amazon for sure then
late solar
Amazon and meta are in Austin
slim crow
it’ll make it easier for you to recruit where you/her want to be in the future
plus the flight thing, idk if she has to be there 5 days a week or what but if not, you can fly her out very frequently
ldr is a lot easier when u can afford a gajillion flights

Lowkey is it possible to push Mastercard to summer start 💀 cuz the big zon layoffs are supposed to be done by like may or something
late solar
Isn’t that 6 months wasted though?
unless you plan to do smth else feb - aug
the opportunity cost is like 6 months of experience and however much you would’ve made
Oh ok
That’s good yeah
do that
slim crow
yea that’s what I meant
valid frost
amazon
