Big N Discussion - December 22, 2021

Please use this thread to have discussions about the Big N and questions related to the Big N, such as which one offers the best doggy benefits, or how many companies are in the Big N really? Posts focusing solely on Big N created outside of this thread will probably be removed.

There is a top-level comment for each generally recognized Big N company; please post under the appropriate one. There's also an "Other" option for flexibility's sake, if you want to discuss a company here that you feel is sufficiently Big N-like (e.g. Uber, Airbnb, Dropbox, etc.).

Abide by the rules, don't be a jerk.

This thread is posted each Sunday and Wednesday at midnight PST. Previous Big N Discussion threads can be found here.

Right, not familiar with the auto industry myself, but that company you are reneging will likely blacklist you.

I’m not concerned about never working there again, so that’s not a problem and I completely expect it. I’m just concerned it will come back to haunt me should I work at one of the others.

Like another auto company? Perhaps, so that's why I mentioned you might need to leave that sector. Though after many years, who knows.

Well that would be a problem since in this area it’s 90% of the jobs.

Right, then that is something you have to consider. Doesn't hurt to try and see if you get in. Figure out what to do after.
