Join Splunk for 520k or try a good company

I attended interview with Splunk for experience and ended up getting a good offer, 520k which is a significant bump in my TC. I don’t know much about Splunk but not many positive reviews at least in blind from folks in Splunk and their stock/performance doesn’t seem promising, maybe I am wrong. Do you recommend joining Splunk or try for some good companies which has good future? TC: 340k YOE; 12

Splunk is not a reputed company?

Salesforce OPKo15 OP Sep 24, 2021

Sorry, my bad. I didn’t mean reputation. Company with a good futures. I couldn’t edit my options anymore.

May I know which location? Do they have remote option?

Salesforce OPKo15 OP Sep 24, 2021

SF Bay

Salesforce OPKo15 OP Sep 24, 2021

I think remote depends on the position. I heard they are open to remote

Splint and salesforce both are not reputable. Good news is at least splunk is not worse than salesforce

Salesforce OPKo15 OP Sep 24, 2021

Yeah, my bad. Not reputation, I meant company with a good future. So, you worked in both Splunk and SFDC?

Pretty solid offer for P5. Take it. Splunk has taken a massive reputation hit recently. Haven't shipped anything valuable for last 5 years.

Salesforce OPKo15 OP Sep 24, 2021

Makes sense. I was scared by seeing so many negative comments from Splunk folks in Blind. Do you think Splunk has a good future or is it a sinking ship?

Salesforce OPKo15 OP Sep 24, 2021

Also, how are the yearly refreshers in Splunk? Is it very rare or common? Do you know how much P5 gets usually?
