Uber

TC - 190k (Y1 and Y2)

PRO - Good Solid Refreshers and best amongst the 3, free food, Better reputation for engg talent, Growth to L4 would mean 60-70k refreshers every year which is on par with Google. Like the team and manager.

Cons - Instability, potential layoffs, Relatively bad wlb compared to all 3, no 401k.

Atlassian

TC - 175k- 180k (Y1 and Y2)

Pros - Best wlb amongst all 3, fully remote option, Interesting Product space and good tech stack, supposedly the most chill company and employee. Like the team and manager.

Cons - less reputation, sub par refreshers, perhaps chill wlb would mean my growth is hindered.

Salesforce

TC - 200k( Y1 and Y2)

Pros - Highest TC amongst all 3, Good wlb, Most stable company, Better positive outlook from industry standpoint, ESPP, 401k,

Cons - Perhaps most demotivating factor - Manager was extremely condescending during my conversation (typical indian manager who thinks new grads are full of shit and arrogance (I m myself indian), full stack team so not a big fan, no refreshers until LMTS so would be stuck with 200-250k for next 4-5 years.

YOE 1.5

TC : 150k

  • Salesforce is when you have a family. Bad place to start your career.

  • No refreshers till lmts is untrue. I have gotten refreshers every year except the first year since I joined. That means as an MTS, SMTS and also LMTS

    • I feel it’s more like 30-40% get it. It’s depends on orgs and SVP. The issue is there is no defined refreshers across the company. It’s still way better than Amazon and MSFT from what I hear

      Definitely not than Amazon. Amazon has standard refreshers that 95% of the people get.

      Salesforce sounds like the type where it's entirely dependent on what org you are in which in a way is unfair and only 30-40% getting is it means if you are average people would look to switch after cliff.

    Uber has no 401k? Wtf?

    Also refreshers are good but look at the Uber stock. And the engineering talent that made Uber great left to other companies long ago. Only join if it’s ML platform team. Stay away from Eats.

      My only expectations are good wlb, no forced PIP Quota, no forced stack ranking with the intention of threatening bottom tier employees with PIP while at the same time ensuring above average/ top of the market pay (which is heavily dependent on what the refresher amount looks like for average performers).

      I empathize with you, just saying that don’t expect all of that to be gone at Uber. Or really any of these companies. Ideally if you have time you can keep interviewing and go somewhere else. Otherwise just take Uber and call if a day since it’s better than Salesforce for sure. Just don’t expect to be working with geniuses, it will still be Rahul and Radhika there too lol.
