Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

Big corporations suck. Startups and SMBs suck even more mostly. Freelancing sucks too. I've done all three at high pay and senior levels.
You can mostly only choose how much it sucks and why, and what particular flavour of shit sandwich sucks least. For many, stability and benefits is what sucks least, even if the company is soul sucking.
The only good companies I've heard of are those with very strong unions or outright constructed on the German Derigisme model with worker board input.
