Im a software dev at a big non profit, pretty chill, learning a lot, low stress, mix of old and new tech, freedom to ask for more or less work/what type of projects i want to work on, deployments are biweekly at normal times (not like at a bank i was at previously where they were like 10pm-3am because of India time zone lol)

i realistically have about 2-3 years relevant experience, making around 100k. im aware if i study/prepare i could prob get an offer from a FAANG for >150k which i prob will do in a few months tho for the prestige/brand.

my manager has a lot more on his plate, but said in the last three years theres only been one day when hes had to work after 5pm due to a software emergency, so staying at current company is pretty appealing, but id like a pay raise when i hit my year mark so that will effect things.

Oue team of 5 devs is usually working 930-6 on a daily basis though, i usually work 9-5 tho.
