Well Paid But Boring
Well Paid But Boring
Well paid, good bonuses and rises. Engineering focused company with lots of smart people who love C++. Lots of free food and drinks etc.
Some roles are a lot more interesting than others. I was in a boring role maintaining an ancient and horrific JavaScript codebase.
Too many Bloomberg-specific frameworks and tech with not good enough docs or guides.
Standard workday is 8:30 AM to 6:30 PM. The last hour and a half of every day my brain just checked out, and I would sit staring at the clock because the day was so long.
Reduce the work hours for engineers. I doubt many are actually doing much for the last hour every day anyway.
