Posting for a friend: IC4 Software Engineering offer from Apple in SV vs Sr Associate at Goldman Sachs in NY. He has 6 years of experience in SV. GS TC 300k vs 250k apple.
Depends on what your friend will be working on at those companies.
IB as dev you are second fiddle to bankers, at Apple (role wise) you are still a cost center but you produce stuff that you can see your cousins, kids, neighbors use everyday. Also IB is very cyclical if you happen to think next ten yrs are like last ten, then IB is great. Finally cultural fit is critical at both GS and AAPL, strong cultures at both — night and day compared to peers within perspective industry. Spent time at IB and AAPL, personally more satisfied in SV.
Wait a second. GS has variable bonus percentage. How did you come up with that number? Does that not include bonus, or is it guaranteed bonus first year.
They do give guaranteed bonuses in first year
What groups at AAPL and GS?
