I have two offers to compare from Apple Pay and Atlassian. Current TC 225k 7 Y.O.E Apple Pay ICT4: Austin 185k base 10% target bonus 370k stock over 4 years 20k sign on bonus Recruiter said target refresher for this level was 1/2 of base each year. Relocation will be offered (15k) Atlassian P5 205k base (15% cut in base if moving to LCOL city) 15% target bonus 310k stock over 4 years No sign on bonus ☹️ Target refresh is 1/4 of initial grant ( but co-founder announced in recent earning letter they plan to significantly increase stock based comp for existing employees in 2022 to retain them so could be higher) Atlassian is remote first and seems to have better benefits overall than Apple. I can work from offices, hybrid or just stay remote if I want. Apple is mandating return to office (even with omicron no changes there yet). I feel like Apple is a boomer company, great stock to own and great products but working there will be just average in terms of tech stack and culture. Atlassian seems more agile and pleasant to work for, stack is also AWS, but definitely more risky than Apple. #offers #apple #atlassian

Remote is better for mobility. You can work from the tropics 6 months in winter and you can lose the commute if you want
Is the difference between TC’s much after adjusting for COL? If the difference is small, go to atlassian. I’ve consulted for them previously and the culture was awesome. Fully remote is the way of the future.
Just 15% base adjustment from Atlassian if I were to go to like Austin
Is this the final offer from Atlassian. Did you negotiate?
Final offer, why?
Saw someone getting around 280k stocks for P4 level on Blind. So I think stocks can go a tad bit higher?
What have you smoked mate!
Completely disagree. Especially at the current price. Growth is super high. There's a ton of upside.
Apple is faang level. We r tier 2
Don't care too much for these titles anymore. I already have Amazon on my resume. it's about doing what makes you happy not chasing to be part of an acronym. I lost out opportunities chasing FANG vs a competing offer than ended up 5x stock over Amazon with better culture and wlb
I was referring work and not money
Apple since Apple pay is a good org - both Tech and culture
Can I DM about the org
Did you accept Apple Pay?
Pick Apple; it's a no-brainer. Ask the Apple recruiter what your expected total comp is for years 2, 3, and 4 if you meet all expectations. My guess is that it will be the same if not higher than Atlassian, excluding stock appreciation. Including stock appreciation, it will likely be significantly higher. Source: I had a similar (slightly lower) ICT4 offer from Apple.
Atlassian if you like remote work and chill culture. I'm also bullish about our stock. The apple comp is probably a little better though considering location and if that refresher amount is true.
Come to platform org if u feel atlassian is chill :)
What's the platform org? Mind if I DM?
I feel that Atlassian might have better company culture
