>tfw when planning to shift into the field and I know I will get a job as I'm ready to accept half the salary software devs expect
My current job pays shit anyway

>>53326562
i unironically work in corporate fp&a at this shitter company. the layoffs are just starting. and no, it's not HR getting the axe.

>>53327065
Shift from what? What's your current pay?

>>53327081
Wtf is a care worker?

>>53327178
Its like your mother except they get minimum wage

>>53327178
fat central american goblina women who watch (raise) your kids at daycare centers for $13/hour.

AI may be indistinguishable from their jeeted code base, but those of us who actually write quality are safe and always will be

>>53327009
diversity is our strength.

tell me about the package, curious what it is. my company is doing 3 weeks pay per year of service + 12 weeks. All stock options vest immediately and you can stay on the health insurance for 2 years.

the also started that twitch competitor, they spent like 500 million on contracts with ninja and shroud alone, then they just closed it.

learn to plumb, techjeets

Thank goodness my parents sent me to a family friend. My kids will be raised by their mother (or me if she makes more)
>>53327285
Why would they get paid the same as a software developer?

>>53327351
WOW! Okay maybe MSFT isn't so good then: effectively immediately, 1 week pay per year. COBRA health insurance 6 months, can use satellite office in Seattle for 6 months so that I have a place to go (look for a job) and still get free coffee.

>>53327009
Yep. Winning since early 90s. Not one bad console in multiple decades. The valve layoffs will be hilarious.

>he thinks businesses care about quality code
capitalism has always and will always reward the minimum viable product. if you doubt this just look at the sad state of affairs of literally any consoomer product. no one gives a shit about "high quality" code and literally every tech company having a mentally deranged cluster fuck of spaghetti code is proof of this.
>NOOOO!!!! IT'S THE POOJEETS AND BOOTCAMPSHITTERS!!!!! I'M THE ONLY GOOD CODER IN THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE!!!!!! EVERYONE IS DUMB EXCEPT FOR ME!!!!!!!

I can smell the curry coming off W11. It’s a buggy unstable piece of shit, and it’s not because they write high quality code, and it’s only going to get worse because they replaced their QA department with cuck insiders who do it janny style but even then the only bugs that get fixed are “this update just factory deleted my user folder”
Stop simping for the trillion dollar company and maybe things will improve

Tax, under £26k, which is terrible even for Europoors

>>53326562
So this is what they mean by unlimited time off

>>53327418
>neet faggot thinks he knows anything about AI, machine learning or anything related based on a tweet
Just pipe down retard, everything you said is actually complete garbage. Yes, companies DEFINITELY care about the quality of their code base. Just stay in your lane and jack off to tranny hentai or whatever you do, shoo shoo

>>53328165
>defiantly wrong
