for internship? its 10k/month + 8k housing stipend (USD)
what is FS?
For Sure
Yeah*
Arcesium is not the best Resume Value
idk bro been a struggle so far
But get your Money
what is best resume value? My friend did shopify and got a lot of procs? so thats what i was thinking too
but its poverty
For Pure Resume Value Shopify > Cloudflare > TTD > Arcesium
its a "spinoff" which means the people that own DESCO own it but its a seperate legal entity ๐ญ
okay bet thanks
do yk if shopify lets u push offer to next term?
i wanna do arcesium for the money ๐
For Waterloo It shoudl
ngl i dont think shop is better than cf but if ur loo then it might be the move
they donโt
even for Waterloo
why does loo make a diff?
have u seen summer to fall?
yeah i remember that
ah okay thanks
ive heard many people last summer get told to reapply for fall
just ask after offer tho
cause of headcount? or they asked to be moved
I think ttd has relocation to nyc if u get ro
I asked the recruiter about it and she said that the ROs are for toronto and they dont do sponsorships
and the salary in canada is shit
really?? for resume value?
even for toronto?
Are you sure?
Ur interviewing for toronto?
whats hypo
Which round?
ahh i see
yeah im in proc
thanks bro
thats crazy bruh i asked too she said nah
who was ur recruiter
She said they dont offer ROs to the states
Yeah same
bruh she tweaking
Didnโt you just say u asked in the interview?
The Trade Desk

Shopify doesnโt pay much but itโs more than 110k
ud put cloudflare above shopify?
I havent seen a guy thats ngmi after shopify

@late flower got citadel and jane street procs
and they all bouta go further than ttd ๐ญ๐๐ฝ
U can get quant procs with shopify
Doable fs
C4 upper end is almost 150
Swe
Mle prolly higher
Doesnโt rlly matter if u still get procs after
I have citadel proc and Iโm ex shopify
bro thats the opposite of what they do
Thatโs doesnโt make sense lol
they go for people that have familiar names
cause its a higher chance of performing well
Damn it im ngmi ๐ซ
shopify + loo interns go on to perform really well, which is why they get a lot of rpocs
cause tis very common
Thatโs not true lol
Why is bro so against shopify ๐ญ
Itโs just a job gang
me too icl ๐
No like Ik a couple of โngmiโ ppl who got Shopify
Its not ngmi
bro ive never heard someone call shopify ngmi
Why is ur only source levels ๐ญ
If someone knows the actual rate
U still trust levels
Thatโs the problem ๐ญ
theres late stage startups that pay good
200 in Canada?
ideogram, stan AI, etc
yes
bro no one cares about canada this place is cooked
we trynna make it to cali
and more tax
and SNOW
autodesk
bros defo at autodesk
or adobe
ik im trolling him
autodesk ngmi
ai bro
let me guess
autodesk > shopify
bro i know
ascaredcow is gmi
scared cow hates shopify for some reason
ai rbo
this guy trynna aurafarm
with his alt account
ttd pays best but cf is best name + better if u want to move to us
shop is also good but pays less and is less of a "tech company" than cf is
Whatโs the highest you know?
buddy thatโs what they said ab zon
every zon prev ik has gotten some sort of quant proc or bare minimum db
donโt try to say ttd stock comp is eq to faang lmfao
down 30% on the year
you telling me u think this stock is just as good as like meta
stock is a large part of senior comp
and like a quarter of ng
u think this bum ass advertising company is gonna perform better next year than meta?

โmarket hasnโt priced this inโ such a shit take
so what youโre saying is every single stock is equally likely to perform/exact same ev because the โmarket priced itโ
damn
canโt argue with that
iโm done w this lmfao
worst tier list
why is every quant above big tech
is this ranked by salary or what
then its bad
in what way
besides pay
and even then some of these quants pay similar to big tech
prestige to who
๐
cscd
sig susquehanna is aura bro ๐ฅ
lol no
shit firm
as an example
are you quant
bro wants to get laid off after working 80 hours for 6 months straight
stop the cap
go ask a random person on the street if they know what 5 rings is
if ur argument is aura
some of them dont pay 500k
or even close to it
no they dont
its not an opinion
how can you disagree with a fact
its a fact some of them do not pay 500k
my source is going thru sig process and asking about salary
๐
im sure a bunch more are the same
qd
it matches levels
if your only metric is tc then sure
most people enjoy having lives
but even then if ur metric is tc then the tier list is shit
if it was then tesla would be d
life dream ๐ฅ
dangle carrot in front of engineers
tesla is shaping humanitys future ๐ฅ
elon is a fraud
he merged xai for a gov bailout
bro fell for the propaganda
its over
tc as the only metric is bad
hes ragebaiting
prestige from just tc is ridiculous
no but most people say quant > big tech, that's why
only ngmis
what would be at the top of the tech tier list for you? Just curious lol
thats a good one
unicorns and trendy big tech (ai rn)
don't they require masters/phd?
theres only a few quants worth working for
js/hrt?
yea like t1
for example, optiver has really scummy practices with graduate hiring ive heard
they cut people before the first yearly bonus
They give cash stipends on top it comes out to about 98k
the wlb argument is overstated tbh, most quant firms dont have terrible hours
also ppl will talk ab wlb and then proceed to just come home, watch reels, scroll discord, and sleep ๐
like over 60
no
bro bankers work 100 hour weeks
the phd i work with sleeps in the lab
not terrible if u sleep 4-6 hr
yes?
last sem i was easily over 80 hrs
3 lab positions + 19 ee credits + tutoring + independent research
itโs not that bad
iโm relatively in shape
have friends
etc
4-6 hr
im ngl if ppl can have a whole roster, many friends, and be jacked working 100 hours/week you're a bum if you cant do that on 60
ong
ts dude talking out his ass
i have literally worked 80 hr weeks
last summer i did 3 pt research positions + zon intern
more than 70 hrs
last sem was closer to like 90
u sound insanely privileged to think 55 hours is a bad life bro
i actually have a low resting heart rate
are we arguing with a nepo baby?
ong heis
mfs donโt know what life is like for us
street hustling
bro... you're sitting on a $2000 chair in a perfectly air con-d office with unlimited free snacks on a mf company estate worth hundreds of millions
some of us work on stuff we enjoy
like you are not breaking ur back doing hard work
ong
i know plenty of ppl putting in like 40 hrs work 60 hrs gaming a week
like irl
is that also unsustainable in your opinion?
you can make the desk standing, you can use a walking pad, you can work outside...
like you have everything at ur disposal
my point is that 55 hours is far, far from a bad life especially when your situation is so comfortable
like nothing stopping u from using a walking pad
ik ppl that do
you have free healthy snacks
free gyms too sometimes
depends on your role but could be yeah
yeah you might be but it's only mental tiredness, not mental and physical
all things considered it's a great situation
@spice maple how did u get offer already for shop? I just had life story they said offers are next week
Itโs not buns but itโs just lower full time pay
no its legit buns lmao the name gets u nowhere compared to cloudflare
I mean money isnโt everything tho
A lot of my friends say the experience itself is great
But obv I think cloudflare is better
What did cloudfare ask for technical interview question? i have a swe backend interview coming up with them would be a huge help!
wdym it's a canadian company?
agree
well yeah everyone wants to go states so understandable
so company pay and location is the issue here it seems?
work wise there's plenty to learn and do
trust bro 3 canadians are telling u shopify is ahh trust
I wouldnโt say most of big tech loo just has a much larger undergrad compared to other schools
So itโs easier to be over represented
and thats js cs, uw as cfm, se, and the other se adjacent engs
cf is def best name especially for startups and unicorns
cf is hiring 1100
bro what is this arguement ๐ญ
shopify hires 1000 interns and its ass, but cloudflare can do the same because its not canadian
that makes no sense
recruit for better none of these will move the needle more than the other
Waterloo + Shopify will already get everything
No LMFAO
Amazon >>
He is waterloo
Top school
Yes
Better network
Amazon is still considered a top company
Nobody knows what TTD is in sf
Yes
But Amazon is a very good name to get on your resume
You can target mostly any company
bro choosing shopify is stupid man cmon
its not abt how many interns they hire
the resume value is just not high compared to CF
source: a friend worked at shopify
damn really
i have friends that worked at shopify and got basically every proc imaginaable
after shopify
(all shopify + loo btw)
but u think cf + waterloo > shopify + waterloo?
from resume value perspective purely idc about ft tc
Nobody will care
They will see waterloo and give you interview
bruh its not that op
I have not gotten many interviews
I have a good gpa, just chose to work at a startup last year (no name) instead of a big name company and it cooked me. Got a lot of practical exp but having brand names on ur resume is defo more important than being waterloo
cloudflare
yeah well cloudflare is hypo if i get the offer i will take it
Aside from it being Canadian why do people keep calling it buns here
Isnโt it solid for resume value?
Forget tc
Yeah but why
Yeah Iโve noticed tons of loo going there
Oh well
honestly for me the only thing that matters as a second year is resume value
I think coming from a non target if I land it it'll be the biggest thing I have ๐
