Google vs Dropbox vs Robinhood
3YOE, Current TC 180K Seeking advice on which I should join, WLB + Career + Savings Please comment on why if possible Google L3 (Mountain View) - 220K TC (avg), yearly refreshers - Down-leveled + Great perks + Like the team, Good WLB - Slow promotion culture?? - RTO soon Dropbox IC2 (Seattle, Remote) + 315K first year, 280K subsequent years with refreshers + lower tax in seattle + Additional 7K employee reimbursement yearly for almost anything + Decent team, Good WLB, Great company culture + Fully remote, I enjoy remote work - Company outlook isn't as positive, stocks isn't growing much - Projects doesn't sound as interesting Robinhood L2 (Menlo Park) + 320K first two years, 300K for the rest - Refreshers not confirmed + Seems to have more impact and interesting projects - Unsure which team I will be joining, known during bootcamp - Heard WLB is bad - Join after IPO, unsure how stocks will perform - RTO 3 days per week next year
I’d go with Dropbox
Dropbox for culture, WLB and pay.
I agree with you here. But are you concerned at all about the direction of the product/company? I know there were some layoffs during Covid and I’d be a bit scared leaving a tech hub to work remote if layoffs are possible during a second-wave of covid. Thoughts? Again, I agree with picking Dropbox, just want your insight
I like to think in 5 year time periods. Dropbox had strong fundamentals and financials for the next 5 years. So not worried about the company going belly up. Our stock price has gone up 40 percent in 2021 because of financials and new strategy (hellosign acq). Most of the covid layoff was sales and real estate management etc (not engineers). The sales folks got impacted because of strategy change (enterprise to SMB). Real estate got affected with remote policy. Your concern about remote work holds true for any company which hires remote.. you could choose to work for Dropbox in a high cost tech hub if you are worried about job availability.
Join Dropbox and try G again at L4 next year.
Dropbox for sure. Stable, great culture, amazing talented people and cannot beat this WLB for this Pay
can I DM you to ask a few questions?
Absolutely 👍🏻
Robinhood. At 3 YOE Robinhood looks best on TC and career growth.
Remote and more TC/wlb? 1000% Dropbox
why are there so many people voting robinhood but comments are all saying goto dropbox?
Pre-IPO catapult?
Dropbox for sure
Hi, congrats on your offers! Would you mind sharing your prep and the general difficulty of your onsites? Thank you in advance.
DM me
sent a dm as well @g43tg if you dont mind! Thanks!
L3 at 3 YOE is not exactly downlevel. Given your options, Robinhood seems like the right choice unless you are gOoGlE fanboy.
What about Dropbox?
+1 wrt the "downlevel" comment.
