Guys, help me evaluate this offer and make the decision. Reason to leave current job: running behind payroll and can have issues getting i140 approved. Current TC: 120k YOE: 6 SXM TC: 167k I am expecting to get PERM approved in 2 months from now and if everything goes fine can get i140 in 4 months. However it is a risk (considering finances) With SXM it means starting the process all over again. What should I do ?
what swe level
Swe 2 they say.
I recently left Sirius after 5 years because of Disney takeover and harassment by incompetent managers who got promoted from engineers just because they wanted someone internally. Was a good company a couple years ago.. got worse when they Pandora.. now even worse after the Disney takeover. You wouldn't find any growth or good things to learn. There's lots of better opportunities out there. I'd skip if possible.
Iâve heard the same thing about other people leaving because of Disney take over and them silently laying off staff. What team were you on?
Does "Disney takeover" mean an influx of ex-Disney staff? Was that problematic for some reason?
I would suggest not to leave your current company just for the sake of pay. Immigration should always be the first as there are ton of good opportunities out there which you can apply later on & switching is easy. Dealing with visa process all over again is a big head ache. I did the same mistake. Even SiriusXM canât control time line of this process if you start over I-140 process again & it could potentially delay work visa for your spouse. Complete the I-140 process & then switch company. I know salary is tempting but it can wait until you get an approval for I-140.
I would highly recommend to not quit your job for SiriusXM specially if youâre a person of color. The new CTO and all his leadership are racists. There are a few posts on Blind about the new CTO Joe Inzerillo. Please make sure to check them out.
Why havenât you left? Is it true that he is silently letting go of older staff??
Trust me, I am interviewing. I wouldâve left already if I didnât needed money for mortgage and kidâs college tuition and insurance. Yes, he has laid off older people and other protected class like people of color, women, etc.
This is all a little over the top here. Leadership is a lot of white men, but that doesnât mean they are racists đ This is the probably the same person claiming they only let go of people of color when this was absolutely not true. The reality is SiriusXm is a profitable, stable company with a great work life balance (Fridays end at noon) and interesting work in the right group. Donât let a few bitter Bettyâs here on Blind discourage you if you like the position and the people you interviewed with. Good luck!
Absolutely. This has already been discussed in another thread and multiple people confirmed knowing several âmiddle-aged white guysâ were let go. Get over yourselves making yourself toxic victims by seeing things that arenât there. Maybe the reason for whatever issues you are having are your negative attitude and victimhood.
Why do you sound so jaded and âpositiveâ njyctunh? Is everything ok with you? P.S.: In a murder mystery, it's never the obvious one you think did it. đ€Ș
Iâm tired of the bs people are spewing about only people of color being laid off. Itâs simply not true.
Your last comment on how the victim is the problem is a very common thing aggressors do. Let me guess you are a white man or a woman, and perhaps helped make that list.
Dude, have you ever seen a chain of middle aged white VPs who have the exact same role? They donât even know why are they here and what to do other than just being silent listeners in the meetings.. I have never seen such job roles where you just hire people because they have worked with you in Disney, irrespective of whether there is a need/ availability or not, you hire them, total BS. The âmy way or Highwayâ culture is everywhere in this company nowâŠ
And these middle aged white men who have literally done nothing productive are getting the heftiest bonuses in Feb. Shame on everyone who is supporting this and/or staying quiet.
Still at it? GET OVER YOUR MADE-UP victimhood or quit! Jesus. What do you want people to do, call Barbara Walters? You are obvious very unhappy, so get another job. Merry Christmas.

How is SXM still afloat? I thought it would have gone bankrupt a long time ago. Iâm like super curious with Spotify and Apple Music dominating the market
People like my mom still listen to their Patriot news in their honda
Sirius is actually profitable vs. spotify. AND has a larger market cap. All about the carâŠ.
