Comment on Ask HN: What is it like working at Netflix?

Comments

Netflix employee 2009-2011; built the user-facing parts of the original iPhone and Android apps. If you are an engineer--sorry, can't speak to other roles--and you can possibly swing a stint at Netflix, do so. They move fast, pay a ton, and you'll build a universally-loved product with some of the smartest people in the world.

Oh, and with regards to unlimited vacation (or parental leave, for that matter): if your company offers it, take it. Especially if you are a manager, and 10x especially if you are a founder or C-level person. If leadership doesn't take vacation, vacation is Not Taken.
