MSFT TC is lowest among the M-FAANG, atleast who are in MSFT as old employee for some years (new-hire is a diff story). 1. But is it worth switching from MSFT to non-FAANG companies (like Dropbox, PinInterest, Doordash, Roblox, list goes on ...) just for getting a TC bump in the long term career ? OR 2. Should you only interview and work with only FAANG companies in the long term career ? It will be good to hear your journey and experience. #tech #swe #techindustry #faang #msft #engineering
“MSFT TC is lowest among the FAANG at least” but Microsoft is not in FAANG :) It is worth if you like the team, work and compensation. Why not?
What? So only because it's not in the acronym you wouldn't go there? 😂 Tbh, if you believe in the company, there is no reason to not go to Roblox or Dropbox, etc. These are all great companies and your career growth will depend on you. Not because you are in Google vs Pinterest means you automatically will have a fantastic career growth if you are a shitty person/engineer/whatever. If you see potential career growth at MSFT, sure stay. But only because it is part of faang (which tbh, MSFT is as faang as Dropbox or Pinterest or Roblox) I don't think it should be enough reason for not exploring other options.
I'm glad people like this exist. I left "FAANG" shitty TC soon as I got an offer and you know which company already I left
+1 leaving MS for your company 😜
What a silly mentality. As if FAANG is USA government accredited organization like CIA. Dude this FAANG bs is all from blind . Get over it man. After couple of years there will be numerous elite companies paying more and with great WLB.
Hahaha I worked for Amazon and Google before joining Dropbox and didn’t think twice dude. Happy about my decision. And you are in Microsoft 🤣🤣 its technically not even FAANG (if u care), and one of the lowest paying bs politics n low respected company amongst tier-1 companies. IMHO all companies named above are better than Microsoft, I have seen some of the dumbest people working at Msft (every company has ‘em but Msft has too many) so it’ll be good for ur personal growth too.
That hurts my feelings because I’m coming in as a swe at Microsoft
No offense 😊 But OP was comparing M with Dropbox, Doordash Pinterest n such. So above comment was reflecting that. I am not saying Msft is a bad company, just that its lowest in tier-1 companies (if it is even tier-1) But (again no offense) if u r comparing with JPMorgan then Msft is like Google 🤣
