    I did not even last 1.5 years in big tech before my manager was telling other people he was going to lay me off. I quit before then, but I was always told I'm a top performer. So even if you don't quit after a year they will find a way to push you out. Ironically, big tech is much LESS stable than a medium sized or startup company.
    Also when I left the company my entire team was saying they wish they had a new offer as well.

    Fantastic video Kevin! Really good points about the pros/cons that come with working at a big tech company (especially the golden handcuffs) 😮

    Hi kevin. What happened to your leetcode Easy and Leetcode Medium playlists? I used to love working through them in order. I don't see them anymore. Have you made it for pay only now? I'm willing to pay. I need to prep for interviews now. Please let me know how I can access them again? Thanks.

    During the video google career certificate ad came in the middle, I have waited until the end of the ad, will they pay you since you work for google? Or not

    Those non-competes including ANY post-employment restrictions should be ipso facto illegal. All states must ban these disgusting anti-worker, anti-competition practices.

    Its really outstanding. Kevin I always like your tweets and this is the first time I watched your video. I feel blessed to watch such a thoughtful video, The Social Network you really made the point! Thank you for sharing the downsides.

    Myth #1 and #2 are definitely true. Layoffs and work life balance are hard. I can say I did work on cutting edge technology in my time (#3).

    What about AI like chatgpt and its impact on hiring process and developer jobs?

    • @KevinNaughtonJr
      @KevinNaughtonJr  Před rokem +2

      i think the hiring process will continue to evolve at a slow rate on it's own so i don't think chatgpt will affect it really. i think AI tools will help devs do their jobs more efficiently

    Well explained. I think from a junior's perspective it's better to work at startup than big tech Company.

    • @KevinNaughtonJr
      @KevinNaughtonJr  Před rokem +7

      having worked at both startups and large companies now i think the most important things to prioritize (especially early in your career) are receiving good initial training and mentorship. gonna make a video on this soon
