It shouldn’t surprise you that people like the work or products specific companies work on and have a dream to work on those too. The actual experience of working there though is hard to know in advance.

In my case, it was more: It was a company where we just kept near missing, and it was a very logical fit.

But it was a bad team fit. 100%.

That said, sometimes one has to have a few bad experiences to actually know what good is.

RSU's. Nothing less, nothing more.
