I have competing offers from IBM security and another from a healthcare org. IBM base: ~100K +benefits (permanent position) Other: ~160 K + crappy health insurance(contract position) I would love to be in the security domain but the work at the healthcare org would be more challenging (rewarding). If you were in my place, what would you do?. YOE: ~5 years
Which healthcare org? What are the locations?
One of the large insurance ones. Locations: East coast
Bug blue for sure.
Care ro elaborate?
Only 100k for 5yoe?
I know. Do not have much insider information to compare the offer with. What should I expect in PHiladelphia area?
Not sure about security engineers but band 7 software engineers ( which must be your level) must be getting 160k all cash. Atleast
IBM for the name boost then go anywhere else
Thank You! I see the point
I am IBMer from last few years. From my experience, it’s old school company but stable . You may get little more $$ from outside but overall package and work life balance is great. I have kids and family obligations, very satisfied with workload and family balance.
Thank you for sharing your perspective! I heard similar things.
