I predict that VMWare as a "best place to work" is not going to age well given the Broadcom takeout of VMWare.

    3. Bain & Company
    4. McKinsey & Company
    7. Boston Consulting Group

Are these really best places to work at? I have met many people from these places and I have been told that there is no on-call at these places. Because you are always expected to be working without exception. Always! And often you are actually always working - always as in morning, day, evening, night kinda.

Is that true?

>And often you are actually always working - always as in morning, day, evening, night kinda.

Not normally, but sometimes in an emergency.

What do we do with this info?

Is In-N-Out hiring SWEs ?

No but burger staff is harder to replace by AI than SWEs.

Respectfully disagree here

A company with $1.823 billion in revenue[1] would have a sizable IT department and do a lot of forecasting, maybe even using machine learning.

So, no.

Not FANG salaries, but managers at In-N-Out are being paid a tidy sum. Here it lists 160K in California:

As an employee, if I'm compensated well and have a career progression path, I would be content - I don't have to be an SWE.

It doesn't deserve to be on it.

It apparently does more so than Google.
