Box or Youtube

Just got the offer from Box and Youtube. Since I interviewed with Youtube at L3, so they won't increase level. While Box offered Sr. SE. package: Box base 200k, 17000shares. Total 300k per year. Youtube L3 cap around 250k I'm currently 3+ exps. Considering future career growth, is it worth to take youtube? Help needed.

Box for sure if you are optimizing for pay. Google cannot match that TC. They can't even get close to 300K for L4 let alone for L3. They have been paying like shit for everyone lately. Get a signing bonus from box with your YouTube offer. Unless the team at box is crap I would pick box.

L4 can be above 300k

How's the company doing in general? How's your outlook like?

I would say that you should check out BoxWorks in two weeks. Videos of the keynote will be online soon after and they'll give the best outlook. At least, they have in the past.

What teams would you be joining? What do you care about in your next job?

Bloomberg XTrC28 OP Aug 14, 2018

since I'm still young, I'm more interested in my career growth and resources I could use.

I was sr. SDE at box and moved to G at L5. Joining box will be better for your career.

Your experience at box is HIGHLY dependent upon the team. There are some really great people, but really bad leaders.

Bloomberg XTrC28 OP Aug 14, 2018

thanks for the advice. I'm concerned about this as well. But it's really hard to get an idea by just doing some talking with the manager..

Box 📦 📦📦 📦 Aug 14, 2018

I agree, but I would accept any offer at Box and then you always change teams easily in 9-12 months

Tell us what team your offer is for.
