I got an offers from Google and Salesforce as below, Google -T4 (268 TC) 146/400/10 Salesforce- SMTS (244TC) 185/150/20 I have 8 year experience including 3 years of Apple. Which one should I take?
you need to factor in stock growth as well. Salesforce stock growth: ~80% last year, while it is ~30% for Goog. Google looks good on your resume. My vote is for Google. I heard Google gives good refreshers.
Thanks. Do you know anything about the refresher? How much would it be?
Salesforce rarely gives refreshers so factor that in. However promotion is much easier at Salesforce though with that base you're probably higher than many people at Lmts. I don't have exact info about l4 refreshers but there are tons of blind threads about that. Wlb is much better at Salesforce and it's easier to shine. Learning at Google is much better. Location is also important, being in sf is more fun than MTV.
Google. They have yearly refreshers that we don't have. Supposedly, they have good work life balance too like Salesforce. Also is that 20 your bonus %? If you're SMTS, you only get 15.
Google. Trust me, unless you want wlb.
Tech wise, comp wise, prestige wise Google. Resting and relaxing while having a fun social workplace Salesforce.
Haha... Notice how many Salesforce people has come out and told you to take Google 😂. That's not to say Salesforce is bad. I actually like working here. But it's not really in the same level as Google.
Just want to add to the sea of opinions here that you should take Google, and Salesforce doesn't do refreshers
In case salesforce gives refreshers would your answer change ?
They don't give refreshers so your question isn't really relevant, but if we assume that TC is the same for both companies over all time, Google is a top tier tech company and Salesforce isn't, so I would still go with Google. Salesforce never fires anyone for performance reasons, and that's extremely evident. The low performers never leave, not that they'd be able to get a job anywhere else. I personally don't like that kind of environment.
