You know, there are companies right nearby with mission that alone can keep you inspired and motivated. Those companies have very challenging and rewarding problems to solve.

(Shameless plug for Tesla software engineering!)

I love the mission but it's hard to justify leaving FAANG for Tesla or SpaceX when you'll get paid half as much for twice the work.

It would be cool to work on Autopilot, but isn't it stressful when Elon promises that your feature will ship in 2 weeks and then you have to bust your ass for 6 months to get it out? Because it seems like that's how things work over there.

Do you do referrals?
