Dear Brilliant People - Need help in deciding,to choose between Paypal vs Freshworks in Product Management space in India ( Have got offers from both and have initially accepted both)
Total YOE - 9 Years 8 months with 5 Years experience as PM
Paypal TC (T25) - 46 LPA (Fixed) + 4.6 (Variable) + 40K Dollar vested over 3 years (Payments Platform team)
Freshworks TC ( Principal PM) - 50 Fixed + 40k Dollar vested over 4 years (Primarily AI/ML Role)
What my research shows - Freshworks is a growing company with good WLB/good job stability and good chance of value creation via stocks ( Considering refreshers every year - and stock is priced at 29 $ and it aspires to become Servicenow ( My previous company),so if i extrapolate SNOW trajectory with Freshworks - definitely Freshworks stocks will appreciate
Cons - Not much of a brand value compared to Paypal

Paypal - Pros -Good brand value and payments domain ( i feel with digitilazition this domain will be significant and i will be working in payments platform team - so scale is definitely a plus)
Cons - Heard WLB is an issue and most important job security

My priorities would be Job Security - > Brand and then TC
.
Considering my future aspirations to be working in one of the FAANG Companies ,which one would you suggest ? .Thanks for all your help and also please guide me if my thinking is going in a wrong direction
