Working at big tech companies is currently, by far, the most lucrative career path in the world. Recent graduates can earn close to $200,000, and it only goes up from there. But the reality is that these high salaries and benefits don't come for free. As with everything, results are proportional to effort, and let's just say it's not easy to survive in these companies. While we often hear about "rest and pay" or lazy people, the reality for the average FAANG engineer is very different, especially with recent layoffs and budget cuts. Working at companies like Netflix is ​​much less like a job and more like being a professional athlete. In fact, that's how they describe it on their official careers page. And unless you consistently perform top-notch, you'll be fired from the team regardless of your past contributions or seniority. But often, they don't even need consequences to get engineers to work hard, since they only hire the best from the start. This video explains how difficult it is to work and survive in Big Tech and why the high salaries aren't as generous as they seem.
