Hi Blinders, I have multiple offers but filter them to these three. Help me to choose one. Google, L4 Team - Internal Finance Team TC - 91L (front loaded) Adobe, CS2 Team - Creative Cloud TC - 93L ( Equally distributed) Msft, L63 Team - Azure TC - not yet receive YOE - 7 I worked on Frontend till now and wanted to move to full stack/ backend. I heard Adobe CS2 refresher ~40K, Google L4 ~28k, Msft - not sure. Please share the refresher at these companies. #google #adobe #microsoft
No Adobe
Google was SWE-Full Stack or SWE-Backend?
Op, can you give breakup of 91 in Google L4?
Can you post Google's 4 year Avg. TC ? Have a bad feeling that it will drastically go down even with refreshers .
Yeah, around 75-80
Congrats op. I think you can try with msft for now. Try for L5 after a year. Can I dm you for some details about google?
Sure
Refresher for Microsoft L63 is 40k USD. Target is 20k USD
Don't accept L4. It'll take a min 2.5 - 3 years to get to L5. Better to re interview in 6 months / 1 year and join directly as L5 . You've already demonstrated that you can crack interviews and get a solid package so it shouldn't be an issue.
Creative cloud in India is not a good choice at all. I am working here and trust me it's pathetic all the way. Just to answer your question on refreshers - Adobe pays refreshers to only top performers.
I always heard conflicting views about Adobe creative cloud. Not sure if team specific or complete org is good or shit. Can you help me understand pls.
As I said, there is no conflict as far as india teams are concerned. They are all same. However in USA, it's quite good.
Hi OP, can I DM you for Google?

I want to say but Google but seeing 7yoe I see that Google has once again down leveled, Google TC in reality is more like may be 70L a year considering equal distribution and CS2 is definitely a higher level than L4, Microsoft L63 I think can give 90L and I think it would be the best option or even Adobe. Try pushing for extra rounds for L5 (if you haven't already), if that's not the case I suggest you wait for M
Google Hr said no em show interest for l5 though my design round was positive. Adobe vs msft considering same comp?
I will personally go with Microsoft, people don't realise this but Microsoft becomes very good once you start progressing through the ranks, if you enter at L63 and try to climb till L66 it will be a very fruitful career
