#DRW vs Databricks

For DRW sounds like you’ll be doing back of office stuff. Anecdotally I’ve heard that comp can really plateau at DRW back office swe, so I would probably take DB in this case
like CRUD support, building infrastructure that doesn’t contribute to things like execution at an HFT or teams that are close to the money at quant firms
ah interesting, I could be completely wrong about your situation then
no virtually every swe is working under traders at quants lolol
front office deals more with working directly on the models traders use that directly makes profit
back office is more building infrastructure, building out the stability of things, etc
I’ve heard DRW is pretty silod too so I’d make sure you’re def comfortable w the team you’re on since you can’t really move around there
lol
it's pre-IPO, he's going to be a millionaire if he works there for a year or so
why is DB even being considered
drw is 2x
just pivot down the line if comp plateaus to another quant firm
100x at least
eh DB to quant might be harder
nah db mogs, I've seen a lot of db -> js
Did I just see this on blind
the db -> openai pipeline is also strong
it's like 20 people
do db though it's got way better wlb
nah
no it's definitely worse
I'm not at db
no there's around 20
drw has bad exit opps
openai ofc
nah just trolling
definitely go drw 💀
like I haven't heard of it but if it pays that much it's probably really good
who is every mf in the world bro😭
