38% + about 1 month of net income to pay each year as income tax. There's absolutely no visibility on retirement plan. You just know that you earn "points", with no idea what they'…

So I spent 3 years in Epitech, which forked into 42, and the first 4 weeks aren't a competition but more like an onboarding thing. You basically learn C in 4 weeks, with coding tes…
