Ask HN: What's the best tech company to coast?

2 pointsby DidISayTooMuchover 5 years ago
I&#x27;m tired of the 9-5 bullshit. I wanna work for a company that pays me well, but where I don&#x27;t have to do a lot of work.<p>In my free time, I wanna work on personal projects (both tech and non-tech). I eventually plan to retire early, but I just wanna coast until then.<p>Any company recommendations for software dev position?

Look for a bank &#x2F; financial services, insurance company, or government contractor. Personally I do not think I&#x27;d be able to tolerate the boredom.

Probably an insurance company or bank, to be honest. Bonus, a lot of them are located in secondary cities or the burbs, where the cost of living is wildly cheaper than the tech hubs.

I suspect no one would want to work with you... definitely wouldn&#x27;t be recommending where I work.

Start your own consulting company and coast as much as you want.

Maybe you would be happier with part time work.

Wouldn&#x27;t you coast from 9 to 5 anyway?
