Asking for a friend. TC 400k on both for senior/ic3. Chime RSU is paper money but potential upside if it IPOs. New team, good career growth, likely not as great wlb. Dbx is real money. Stable team, okay career growth, hopefully good wlb. Dropbox growth seems stagnant compared to Chime (series F startup). But wlb likely better. What would you pick? #offer #poll #dropbox #chime
Yoe ?
What’s his YOE?
What’s the TC at Chime? Is the position in ML?
5 YOE and infra SWE.
What kind of questions were you asked at chime? I did an onsite interview recently and didn’t make the cut :(
@Automattic, what questions were asked to you? I have an upcoming interview with them
Breakdown?
I didn’t know what Chime was till today
I've worked at both. Chime by far if the positions and comp are comparable. Unfortunately, Dropbox is just not going anywhere despite having some very talented people working there. The exec turnover tells a clear story
I have a few friends that were at Dropbox, (and a couple still there). Everything I’ve heard points to the company being stagnant. There’s no passion or innovation on the product side, there’s been mass resignations of senior staff/principal engineers, leadership is incompetent, and revenue growth is disappointing. Seems to be coasting. I’ve been really impressed by the passion and culture at Chime.
Hello I had some questions about Chime as I have an offer. Please DM me if you don’t mind.
How many units of RSUs did chime offer you? What position?
If you believe Chime to eventually IPO or get acquired, join Chime right?
