[India] Offer from Dunzo and expectations from Microsoft and Adobe

YOE : 3.5 Currently SDE 2 in Amazon TC: 46L I have received an offer from Dunzo for SSE1 position. Here's the breakup - Base - 50L Variable pay - 5L Joining bonus - 2.5L ESOPs - Approx. 46L worth for 4 years This makes the TC approximately 69L I'm expecting an L61 offer from Microsoft (Bing org, Hyderabad), and also an offer from Adobe (Advertising cloud, don't know the level yet) Help me with these points - • What's the salary band for MS L61? Is it worth expecting that Microsoft will match these numbers? • Same question for Adobe. •Is it possible that MS will raise my offer to L62 if they are not able to match at L61? (given my YOE is only 3.5) • How's the Bing org in MS in terms of work, oncall load, hikes, overall WLB? • Is it worth considering Adobe at this point? • Anyone has any reviews of Dunzo in terms of culture and WLB? The work seems interesting to me. The interviews had good standard. I've liked the conversations so far. Am I falling into a trap? #microsoft #tech #indiasalary #adobe #sde #salarycomparison #dunzo #amazon

L61 won’t even match your dunzo base

Microsoft msft➡️meta Feb 9, 2022

If you get L62 it can be close to Dunzo TC

Amazon 1error OP Feb 9, 2022

Is it possible to get L62 at my experience?

Goldman Sachs ndjejc Feb 9, 2022

Yes! If your rounds go well

Amazon castiel175 Feb 9, 2022

MS would not match even at L62 let alone L61 and no they won't uplevel at all. I like Adobe so would consider that if offer are similar. Dunjo is not listed right so i would not count stock just now in overall tc but again that's personal to me

Amazon 1error OP Feb 9, 2022

I agree I wouldn't count ESOPs equivalent to cash. But, I wouldn't count them 0 either. In fact, I'll prefer MS even if they little lower. But, it would be difficult for me if they are a lot lower.

Microsoft ttic62 Feb 9, 2022

L61 can go to max ~ 53lpa including joining bonus

Cohesity Sqpf46 Feb 11, 2022

L61 can go to 59 Souce: myself

Microsoft uythtg Feb 11, 2022

I assume you are considering 20% bonus which is impossible, average is 10%. I agree with joining bonus, you can stretch a little.

the work load is very high at Dunzo as being the startup they work with a lot of velocity, surely you will learn a lot but soon you will start feeling exhausted due to the very long hours work but you will surely learn a lot

Media.net poRx26 Feb 9, 2022

microsoft is pretty chill organization in terms of workload although i guess they can't go to high with the TC

First time seeing dunzo offering SDE-3 level for 3.5. You are initially looped into SDE-3 role or your went really well?

Amazon 1error OP Feb 9, 2022

It was SSE1 from the beginning. What a senior engineer explained to me, it is SDE 2.5 when compared to Amazon.

Flipkart Flipkart Feb 9, 2022

Ohh great , go for it. The learning would be good!

Amazon LmRu33 Feb 9, 2022

In case you are looking out just for the comp raise, you might want to stick around in Amazon till April. PS: I am neither HR nor in management.

Amazon 1error OP Feb 9, 2022

It's not just for comp. I'm leaving anyway.

Dunzo is solid business. Specially their b2b fleet leasing to likes of swiggy zomato amzn. Wlb will be bad but good learning with scale.

Google venom1 Feb 9, 2022

I don't get what dunzo is doing. Swiggy has started its genie service which makes dunzo irrelevant. Don't think they'll last much longer.

Amazon 1error OP Feb 9, 2022

They are getting into e-commerce business - "Dunzo stores"

Expedia Group vjk@* Feb 9, 2022

Swiggy genie uses dunzo/rapido fleets at backend. Even for some percentage of food deliveries they delegate it to them. And so does zomato. Restaurant aggregation and fleet management are very different businesses. With EVs on horizon, it'll only grow.
