Poland. On one hand it’s a bit slower on the other Google here hiring like crazy, Netflix opening up an office, Shopify acquiring whole companies… To me it seems like big tech fires in the US then look for cheaper workforce elsewhere. Or maybe just a coincidence?

Yeah, it seems that the highly paid Silicon Valley developers have effectively convinced executives that their jobs can be done remotely.

And it’s entirely their fault too if it ends up being the case.

Engineers love showing themselves the door from their work lol.

They shut my office down in Canada. Lots of jobs. Most are remote for US companies though. Very few recruiters spamming me, but companies are very receptive to inbound inquiries from me. I’m a senior eng in AI research though, which is obviously having a big moment right now.

ping me. i may have something..
