[Chicago] Python-heavy job opening

[Cezar Jenkins]

Everything is dependent and relative. A job that is super flexible, with low hours, great benefits, good people, etc etc. can be just fine at 50k. Especially if they are flexible with entry level.

I've heard in Chicago you either make 60 or 90. :)
