Great video! In our area, too much importance is given to Big Tech Companies. There are good challenges in many companies, regardless of their size.
I really appreciate what he's saying. And he's correct about the advantage of not having to wait weeks to push updates into production and being able to accomplish more in a quicker time frame at a smaller company then a bigger company. Which makes it nice in that sense. However I think the big question at the end of the day that we all want answered is the question about SALARY. Smaller companies don't have the resources to pay you as much as Google or Amazon pays their Devs. So it comes down to the fact that we're all there to do a job for 8-10 hours a day; if it were ME, I'd want to be paid as much as possible for the hours I work. Just me though. That outweighs everything. And you'll find that at any FAANG company. So I appreciate what he's saying but again, a ton of people would kill to have his job at Google. If he doesn't want it, I'll take it! 😂
You make sense, work should be meaning as software engineer. Most important I what believe job should make a better engineer not just only make you a lot of money at the end of the day.
Yeah, but after a couple years at a tier 1 company soooooooooo many doors open.
Yo the editing on this video was great! Do you edit them yourself?
man is quitting
I think I was hyped into wanting to work for a big company but then I thought about my dream and focus and working at a big company just makes even more sense for me , I want to know what its like being in a big scale production and big scale innovation because i want to start a huge company of that scale myself, and fastest way imo is to be on the shoulders of giants. But I can clearly see thats not everyone's focus or goals to do so. Many people just want a great job and happy balance which makes sense to want but I think the misinformation and false hype from word of mouth made people association the branding that FAANG companies is like the 'american dream' if you get the job which isn't always true, anyways I like all your advice and perspectives! I look forward to your future videos and I will keep continuing to pursue google to see for myself! wish me luck yall 😬
Who needs tech when we have memes on twitter right?😢
