I joined FB 2.5 yrs back as E4 from L63. I was not a tenured L63 so I felt it was a good deal coming as E4. I am now in yellow zone as I have not got the E5 promo and just landed an L64 offer at MSFT beating my current TC. Offer: 300K A team in azure security. Thoughts on MSFT these days? Any words on azure security? I will most likely take it as the up or out at FB is really killing me :(
What’s the question? Seems like an obvious choice. You’re not happy. No promo in sight. You’re getting a TC boost to a big name company. You obviously have the skills to get into both companies which means worst case you go job shopping again in a year and most likely get another boost. Congrats; take it
total YOE?

Cant say exactly but I never landed EE
What's exactly wrong with FB? What's "killing you"?
Up or out..I have another 6months to het promoted else I will be put in a pip program
Ah ok. I didn't know "up or out" is a real thing in FB. Thanks for the education!
Congrats! I haven’t heard good things about Azure Security’s on-calls. You might want to double check that info (I may be wrong) and consider this if you care about wlb. In any case, Azure's great. I am sure you will be fine, especially as someone coming from Facebook
What's included in that 300K? Sounds to good for L64.
I'd push out offer and get that E5 promo and leave if you don't get it.
Do you get to reclaim the unvested RSU when you left Microsoft 2.5 years ago?
Lol..that was not much..probably about 30K
Go for MSFT as you have no promo open in FB within the necessary timeframe. There would be an option to boomerang to FB at higher level or anywhere interesting in tech industry later but deal with the immediate need now. You interviewed for MSFT for a reason, so follow through on it.

Microsoft is a great place to retire.
Not Azure. The oncall is about the same as AWS
