"there are good perks (company issued iPhone!)"
That sounds like a source of stress right there. If the company gives you a phone I assume it means they own your ass every moment of every day.
- SageRaven 15y agoIt's all perspective, I guess. I was pissed when I joined a shop that wouldn't give me a phone. I had been cell phone free for 5 years and didn't want my own. Instead, I get a per-paycheck stipend to cover work-induced costs. The up-side, however, is that I felt free to unplug my desk phone and totally ignore it. For some reason, that really reduced my stress.
- dmd149 15y agoNaw, I'm paid hourly. Also, I'm not that important. If the job was stressful I'd probably put more effort back into finding a start-up job.
