Hi need your advice between two offers for senior software engineer . One full time one contract. Citi Full time $125k + bonus (performance bonus -less than $5k) 28 days PTO + sick days + benefit Disney studio Contract -12 months $86/hr ( might be able to push it to $90-100/hr) No benefit
Eh I would go with Disney if you could push it but citi is the safer bet
Thanks for your feedback
125 for 3 yoe is good. I would choose Citi ( assuming Dallas location)
Honestly if you aren’t desperate in any way, I’d go with Disney. I don’t know much about it, but I’d bet they are way more tech focused and focused on your growth. At Citi, well, it’s a bank. You do what the business guys tell you to do. I think at either one you’ll learn. I think Disney could open more doors tech-wise and it would just be more exciting. This is assuming you aren’t doing anything huge on the side, obviously. I’m at Citi but doing a lot with my spare time. Citi is good for that bc of the great WLB.
Take Disney. Come back to citi as VP with almost 50k higher.
Whats your YOE? Location? For senior level, both seems low
Location: Dallas Texas 3 years of experience
For 3yrs yoe, than not that bad. I would choose Citi because of insurance/benefits and you could prolly negotiate signing bonus. Disney, you have to pay for everything by yourself. Plus no PTO
