Hi blind, so I was fortunate to have gotten 3 offers here they are: current tc (0 unemployed - was ~135k, ~2yoe) Amazon - los angeles rounding numbers to avoid giving myself away Sde 1 (140k base, 7k reloc, 50k signon/2yrs, 58k rsu/4yr 5/15/40/40) cant get specific on the team but if you could help please tell me to dm and i can disclose info. its a newish team and manager seems pretty cool, anticipates 40-50 hour work weeks hulu - los angeles (145k base + 20k signon + 20% bonus/yr, 45k/3yr for long term cash incentive plan, unknown amount of reloc assistance) not sure what level this is at maybe someone else has an idea? seems to be one higher than newgrad? carta - sf 150 base + some shares (if anyone know more about working there that would be great!) Leaning towards Hulu right now because it seems like a cool place to work + comp, but just a little wary of everything going on with disney now owning a majority share of the company and if its stilla safe place to go (dont want to get laid off randomly) Amazon has the notoiously bad wlb (not sure if manager is being truthful about what he anticipates just to get me to sign) and pip culture which I am not a fan of, but it may look better on my resume in the future? (not sure where hulu is on rankings vs amazon) Id greatly appreciate any advice on which company to choose as well as if I can get more comp from Amazon/Hulu #amazon #hulu
Anybody? I would be super grateful for any insight!
Hulu used to be a total shit show. All the good engs I know left in a hurry. All the bad stayed for a long time. If you donât have any FAANG on your resume yet, I say take amazon . If things get crappy there, you can use the name and get a job at another top company in LA. Hulu is in a state of transition after Disney acquisition. So it could have turned around. But it wonât do shit for your resume in the future.
Awesome thanks for the feedback! I always thought it was considered to be fairly prestigious but i guess i was wrong. Just sucks that huluâs offer is like 25-30k higher :/
Hulu is prestigious among family and friends. In LA tech, itâs a normal stop on the job circuit, like NBC or edmunds. But in the entirety of the tech market amazon is still top tier and you can easily get a job offer from Hulu all over again if you want it. On top of many more doors opened for you
I know some people that moved from Amazon in SM to Hulu. Amazon SM is a satellite office which was a bad thing from their experience. Always better to work at the HQ imo. Hulu has better WLB and depends on the team but Iâd say majority of people here are smart. Can dm me and I can maybe give some info about the Hulu team youâre offer is for. Hulu may not be fang but the challenges in the work is still up there imo
Take AMZN for the name. Try to last a year or 2.
