I have an offer from grubhub and and an offer from capital one as a new grad software engineer. Which do you think would be a better place to go to overall? They are very different with capital one being a large more established company while grubhub is a smaller more fast paced company. I feel like most people will answer grubhub as it is a "tech" company, but at of right now it's stock has not been doing to hot. I'm worried about job stability as well. If someone has experience with the company culture please let me know. Would these be good companies to start my career or should I keep searching or try to negotiate? Capital one : Location : NYC, (option to transfer to nova) Sal: 130k Sign on bonus : 15k Tc: 145k Grubhub : Location : NYC Sal: 120k Rsu: 25k Bonus: 5k Tc: 150k #grubhub #capitalone

Do you get any equity from grubhub? It's good if the stock is down the month you join. If you're just starting out in your career, don't worry about job stability in relation to stock price. It is more likely that senior people are let go before you. GrubHub will be a better choice depending on the team and how your conversation with hiring manager was. My personal interview experience with them weren't too great though.
I did get equity from grubhub. As you said the stock could rise, but it's been slowly declining for the past year which has me worried as it is a good portion of my tc.
Can you add your TC breakdown? It'll help
Grubhub sucks. The interviewer who was a manager was a dick. I ended up reporting him to the recruiter. Someone I know interviewed there and got the same experience. Looks like a very abusive culture from inside grubhub
What did the interviewer do? My grubhub interviewers were all very nice professional.
Capital One likes to pretend they’re a tech company but once you start working there you will see that they’re not really any different from any other bank. It’s no different than working for BofA, Morgan Stanley, etc. Join GrubHub and work for 1-2 yrs till you get promoted to the next level and then quit and move up to a better company.
We're like a tech company because we give stock options, not because of the stack.
Their excuse is that they use tech in banking. But as most banks they're quite regulated, so they can't just build something fast and fail fast, the legal issues would cost too much.
I think GrubHub would look better on a resume and give you better experience. Within tech Capital One isn’t very respected, people think of it as a place to coast
Why is this a question? If you want to be a software engineer grubhub has much better culture and tc… tbh you should find more offers
