That's awesome! I'm still in undergrad and naturally I want that big FAANG+ payday, but, I think building a company or just working with people I really like would be much nicer. But now that you've seen both sides, do you see your self moving?


Yes, waiting for a promotion and maybe some stock vesting, then I can't wait to move. As much as I love money, I'm financially stable enough. Going to force myself to prioritize other things. Good luck.


Yeah, my dad left a very very lucrative SWE role to work as an entry level NASA employee because he loves Space so much. Honestly, he seems pretty happy with the shift.
