Rough given how little PTO they have for a tech company to begin with.

Our HQ (over 3k people) is in the LA area, CEO posted on slack offering up to 10k for any fire related relocation costs during this time.

Garden leave is a different beast and seems fair, you and the employer each get something, non competes on the other hand do not usually offer anything to the employee.

This would be amazing on iOS.

I saw an issues thread from 2017 (https://bitbucket.org/heldercorreia/speedcrunch/issues/702/s...) that discussed porting to iOS but nothing since.

What are the GPL implications of porting this to Swift even with putting all source on a public GitHub/BitBucket repo because of the App Store?

Can confirm this was the case in the US, made me promise myself to never take another software engineer role at a non “tech” company ever again which I’ve held to ever since.

They outsourced every possible role in software engineering and IT to India to the bare minimum where all that was left were the devs who worked on the firmware for gov related projects and regulatory concerns meant only US citizens could work on it. For the devs that were left, it was an uphill battle for resources and salaries while it felt like Sales and marketing were put on a pedestal when this company’s entire product was our work.

I love the direction this wants to go in. So many of these are reasons why we've banned new shell scripts on our projects and instead make python scripts.

How is this different than volume discounts for anything else?
