Shopify offer accepted and joining in few days and received FB E5 interview call.
I am working in Berlin in a startup after moving here in 2019.
I accepted offer from Shopify and rejected offers from Amazon Berlin(TC: 140k euros) and Snowflake(170k euros) due to personal reasons.
After accepting offer from Shopify, I decided move to London and they started the process already and I will move sometime before this year end.
They will provide me updated compensation soon for London.
Now out of nowhere I got call from Facebook London.
I have following questions.
1. I know cracking Amazon SDE2 is easier than FB E5, but how much additional prep time needed considering amazon bar? I know its relative, but even a vague answer might help me visualise better.
2. If I get E5, Is it good decision to jump ship since I wont get Shopify stocks till first year (33.33% will be released after 1st year)
3. Also has anyone ever dumped employer after relocation?
4. I applied many time to FB in the past but got call only now. Will they consider me if I say "I will attend after 8 months"?
5. My resume never got call form any big companies except Amazon because of my background I guess(college and companies). Can I assume, once I move to London and start working in Shopify(Which I believe is a decent enough brand) I will get call up from companies like FB, Google, Snap etc..? So that I can say no to FB confidently now without worrying about getting big company interview calls?
Shopify TC : 120000Euros + 97500$ stocks(3 years)
Current TC: peanuts
Thank you so much. #tech #facebook #shopify #fb #career #advice

If FB recruiting is the same as the US, you’ll have up to a year to accept the offer.
Join Shopify now and in a year quit for FB.
