All of them are in US but they have Canadian operations or subsidiary. So, my location is remote in Canada.
How do you have these offers at the same time? Did you have to adjust timelines to land them all or do they give you a lengthy period to decide?
I adjusted my interview schedules to have them all get back to me at the same time. It was one heck of 2w of interviews.
Cool. Thanks for replying. And congrats on the offers!
Why is DD offer so low? They didn’t match?
I haven’t yet asked them all to match or give me more. This is the initial offer I got.
Ask for more from Okta and DoorDash … maybe in stock or base pay. Then go with the higher rate. I’d choose Okta for job security compared with DoorDash though … IMO
Can I dm you for the name of the startup? It sounds interesting
Yea, for sure
Does Okta have inflated titles? You are getting staff at Okta and E4 at Doordash?
Yea staff is like the end of band of senior at Amazon
DD is under leveling me. They said I was very very close to E5 but not there yet.
Okta offer is low, not sure if it's market or what but I got 240k CAD as senior... I was told I was at top of band recently...so I think you can do at least 40k better
Oh ok. Thank you. I was planning to ask them to give me better numbers. I can use yours are a baseline.
Oh I forgot to say I starting working here last year...good luck
DoorDash is toxic
Is the startup ScaleAI? Sounds awfully like it?
