I am shortlisting the companies for my next move to jump off the sinking ship full of politics and no career growth. I am a new mom of 4 months old baby. For my next move, I am looking for companies with good WLB, career growth and TC. I am leetcoding for the past 1 month. I have started to give interviews for the companies that I don't want to join( like startups ) So far I have shortlisted the following: 1. PayPal/ EBay - 2. Cruise automation 3. Uber - 4. Lyft 5. Apple 6. Google 7. Microsoft 8. Box 9. VMware 10. LinkedIn 11. Atlasssian- 12. GitHub 13. Salesforce 14. NetApp 15. Indeed - 16. Adobe - 17. Dropbox - 18. Twitter- 19. Uber - 20. Square 21. . . . . . May I know the names of few more companies with better WLB and TC. I am regretting every day I spend working for my below poverty line TC Current TC- 100k, Bay Area YoE- 3 years/ SWE(backend) I am looking only in Bay area as I live in Redwood City
Yea PayPal has pretty good wlb, but I'll tell ya the politics is rampant
What about TC and career growth??
I suspect every established company on that list has some amount of politics
Good WLB at Indeed.
Is it exciting to work at indeed? Challenging interesting projects?
Depends on team. But I'm personally working on some really interesting new products.
Did you take the maternity leave?
1.5 months
How’s that relevant?
Splunk, good TC and WLB is great
Some are saying it infamous for WLB
Depends which team. Mine’s not really busy enough, others are swamped with work.
Adobe is the obvious missing one.
from what i see they hire contractors more than actual full-time employees
Thought Oracle was generous to new hires. 100k was the TC I got 8 years ago.
They are still cheap as fuck
I’m honestly confused. There was someone few weeks ago who was claiming he has a 300k TC at Oracle. Is that one off case?
Dropbox has good TC and great WLB. Not that good career growth due to slow business growth.
Good food too. Likely to experience severe layoff in the next few years tho. That’s my bet
Layoff is not in its genes, it doesn't need to with current turnover rate
Wasn't knowing this. Thanks for feedback
That's not a very short list
Keeping it little longer to factor out other o unknowns
Don’t go to google. There will be people like this guy.
I bet you could make 100k on the east coast for a no name company and work 30 hours a week. Also, Uber is not known for a great wlb
Thanks for info on Uber- will take that off the list
Things have changed in recent years. Uber is generally pretty good WLB. Some people think it’s too much WLB...
