I turned down a 285k/yr +MM RSU staff engr offer from Google in 2021.

I’d probably still be in that job and would have a few million in the bank (instead of $10,000) if I had taken it, but I would have sold out my principles.

So yes some of us live by principles

Lol you went through the entire interview loop and only discovered at the end that you were interviewing at Google? Ya I totally believe you lol

Edit: lolol you've served in the military but Google is a step too far Jesus Christ poster child for irony.
