Asking for a friend. Considering two offers from Google and Twitter for ML Eng.
Offer from google: TC 235k + 30k sign on. L3.
Offer from Twitter: TC 265K + 20k sign on. L4 equivalent.
He likes the team at Google much more but Twitter is levelling him correctly and paying more.
Yoe is 2 + masters.
What should he do? Is twitter going anywhere, especially considering no ad revenue due to covid?

Join Twitter. If your friend likes Google that much tell that friend that after a year Google will come back and it won't deny your friend an proper L4 offer.
Google: 1.5-2y to L4, already pretty top of L3 band so limited increase, and no GSU refresh end of year 1.
Twitter: TC, level, full remote
If they dislike Twitter, hit G up in a year and get L4 offer instead. Will be faster than promo to L4.
