5/26 New grads looking for jobs with a great startup checkout
/csua/pub/jobs/OPC_Tech. Check it out even if you are not
a new grad, but would like to work in great company with lucrative
stock options and all the beef jerky, chips, drinks,
granola bars, power bars, etc. you can eat.
\_ why oh why do all these geek companies offer all the
(supply some junk food here) you can eat? And why do
geeks care about this?
\_ Because it makes the company sound hip and k00l and non-
corporate even if its just a lame ploy for the corporate
people running it just to tweak geeks onto the payroll
for less cash because "we're hip! we give beef jerky!"
\_ Actually, the company supplies food and drinks because
most people are at work a large part of the day and enjoy
having free snacks on their breaks. Obviously nobody would
choose a company because of free snacks, but why would anyone
complain about them? - emin
\_ the complaint is that free snacks are put forth as some
sort of useful benefit, on par with stock options, above.
"we may or may not have a health plan, but you can get
free chips!" -tom
\_ Gimme a higher salary. I'll buy my own.
\_ Try Siebel Systems at http://www.siebel.com we do not supply any junk
food besides free drinks..
\_ Ah ha!
\_ According to Chronicle, Siebel was the fastest growing
company for the past 3 yrs in the bay area. They kick
ass.
\_ Intel charges everything from coffee, candy bar, all the way to
your employee badge necklace (the blue one with Intel on it).
ALL the food, except water, is charged to make sure that old
engineers don't get fat and die of heart attack.
\_ "Old" means over 35 right?
\_ That's so the shareholders get maximum profit. So shut up
and get the f_ck back to your pathetic compressed cage.
Engineers are worthless scum, if we fed them, they wouldn't
work as hard. |
