Hey Blind Community.

I have got an offer from a small ed-tech company which gives at least 35% bump to my current TC. It is a REMOTE FIRST position with Software Development using dot net stack (My previous experience has been in this Tech Stack)

The only downside of this switch will be that I'll go back to the mid senior level against my current senior developer position at Workday.

P. S. My main intention with this switch is to get out of XO/YP stack.

What is your opinion?

Current TC: 120000 EUR
YOE: 8 years

    Donโ€™t worry about level at this stage unless title really matters to your prestige like executive level (for them money is not important but titles and itโ€™s associated prestige and power) so take the startup offer and learn new stuff and then move again in next 12-15 months.
    I am doing same at the moment ๐Ÿคฃ to move away from XO after working more than 5 years and now itโ€™s time for something new.
    No doubt workday is awesome company and XO/YP is great but not for long time because not all those development skills are transferable to the industry outside.

    A startup can often be flexible about levels or at least discuss a clear path to promo. You're unlikely to be applying for non senior roles after this one either way.

    Is the 35% increase cash compensation, or including some valuation of equity? If it's 35% more in cash *and* you can negotiate significant equity and believe in the company than sounds great for you.

      Its a fairly stable startup. The base salary itself is more than my current TC. Above that they have bonus and stock plans.

      I discussed about the career growth opportunities with existing employees. They seem to be pretty satisfied with the performance review process.
