Apple has an awful culture and awful WLB. Go with Dropbox. There’s much more upside, and you can leave if the stock doesn’t go up.

Pandora MB3132 OP Jul 16, 2019

The concerning thing about Dropbox is that I'm not too sure about the pivot the company is taking. Going from file storage to workplace software seems interesting on the surface but not sure if sustainable

Dropbox coreColla Jul 18, 2019

You’re telling me that going after enterprise workplace isn’t as sustainable as customers paying 10 dollars a month for storage??????? What????

Apple - it really depends on org. If its Siri AI/ML, thats good. If its IST, please stay away

Pandora MB3132 OP Jul 16, 2019

It's not IS&T group. I really love the projects at the team I got so I'm a bit more inclined towards Apple

Apple cho Chang Jul 16, 2019

Dropbox for holiday gifts and high quality free food. Their annual RSU refresh is pretty good too.

Screw Apple, Dropbox for days baby

Did you apply to Uber?

Pandora MB3132 OP Jul 16, 2019

Got rejected by Uber unfortunately

Yelp sJJv80 Jul 16, 2019

Yelp for WLB, but your “equal TC” scenario seems... unlikely.

Pandora MB3132 OP Jul 16, 2019

Do you mean Yelp will not match the others? The first offer from Yelp is similar. Haven't negotiated yet though

Yelp sJJv80 Jul 16, 2019

I’m saying Yelp is not known for paying as well as the other 2. You may be able to negotiate with the other 2 past the point where Yelp will match.

Keep us updated with TC negotiations.

Apple was quite accommodating and gave me a pretty good offer for IC3. Yelp was the worst

Amazon jYcA33 Jul 18, 2019

I am in same case. Seattle Dropbox ic2 VS Cupertino Apple ict3, a hard choice
