前輩們大家好
我知道看到標題可能很多人會噓 但沒關係我還是想請教一下
前一陣子看了Netflix的一個實境秀叫selling sunset(日落豪宅)
內容大概就是一群房仲會帶客人去看LA的豪宅(大約都是加州300萬鎂以上的)
其中有些客戶的職業是軟體工程師
先不論該劇是不是因為節目效果而有些誇大或造假
但是想問當軟體工程師能夠買得起這些房子的可能性有多少?
我剛畢業兩年 目前住在西雅圖 現在在一家AAA遊戲公司當軟體工程師
除了自己對這領域有熱情也還算做得開心
(除了前一陣子趕工PS5跟新xbox的遊戲比較忙以外 目前大家算半放假?等聖誕節)
說真的薪水雖然比不上FAANG 但是我自認應該還算不錯
但是扣掉稅老實說要能夠買一間自己喜歡的房子在西雅圖還是遠遠不足
所以想請問有沒有前輩們可以分享一下能夠把工作跟熱情最後轉換成$的要素是什麼
1. 英語或政治手腕的問題?
我一直在想是不是我們在這方面跟印度人比較起來比較吃虧?
(我會這麼想是因為Google and MSFT 的CEO都是印度人)
當然職位高 責任重以後以後能夠賺的錢也比較多?
2. 經驗問題?
看過前面幾篇前輩本來在Square後來面試想跳槽的心得
畢竟是猛新創加上原本在台灣三年跟後來三年的經驗
自然面試得心應手而且也有機會談到比較大的package
硬要算我也只是經驗<3年的菜鳥
繼續累積經驗不要想太多?
這邊問題應該是要回到如何讓自己能夠勝任Senior職位發展吧
3. 產業跟地點問題?
要錢就不要進遊戲業?全世界都一樣
還是往猛新創去比較有可能?
不是應該有聽過些新創公司上市以後有人就退休了嗎 XD
為什麼都沒遇過這種公司(可能回到2 經驗不足自然這種機會不會給我遇到?)
加州是機會更多沒錯 但是感覺華盛頓州也不差
4. 找機會創業?或是增加名氣?
但是就算能進的了FAANG這些公司好像真的要能夠買得起豪宅也是有一段距離
(除非真的到非常高等級的職位吧?)
都是當打工仔
不如自己創業做點垃圾課金手遊噱一波?
順便當youtube仔教大家怎麼做遊戲開發之後賣課程?
5. 調整心態?
我不確定房地產是不是全世界都一樣噁心
還是我自己太貪心了...
買房子本來就不是一件輕鬆的事情 先求有再求好
生死有命 富貴在天
乖乖在美國當打工仔存錢老了回台灣就好了
現階段想到大概就這幾點
想知道我這打工仔跟可以買豪宅的軟體工程師到底差異在哪?
另外問有沒有人也看過日落豪宅的 XD
想知道裡面唬爛的機會有多高?
謝謝
