I have a new grad offer from Goldman Sachs and Microsoft, but can't decide which one. Goldman Sachs Pros - 1) Slightly better quality work than msft so will get something to add on to resume as I am a new grad. Cons - 1) Manager is not very good. 2) Not a very good work culture. 3) Lower pay than Msft, more tax and living cost 4) Will have to live on east coast. TC : 110k + 35k bonus + prorated annual bonus Microsoft Pros - 1) Decent TC 2) Manager seems decent and supportive 3) Nice WLB 4) Great Work Culture 5) West coast Cons - 1) I am being hired to work on a tool called Dynamic 365 CRM tool. Its not a good work, no learning and nothing will get added to resume. (This might impact my switching prospects to different companies as recruiters might not even call looking at the profile.) 2) Team switching is tough as the CSEO org is not respect by other Microsoft employees TC : 110k + 30k + 120k stock over 3.5 years Really need help to decide which to join and why? #swe #software #techcareer #softwareengineer #career #tech
Go to msft snd switch teams after some time. Overall Goldman sachs is not as good as msft
Gs is 💩 for swe
And you think Bloomberg is better ?
it is lol
Just take the Microsoft offer. Sounds like it'll be better for your quality of life preferences and your TC. I doubt that it would hurt your resume just because you worked on Dynamic 365, actually CRM related experience is fairly in demand. I would say the quality of the manager matters much more actually, because if the manager is not good that may really hurt your career progression.
Agreed
Microsoft then just switch teams
Microsoft, and I think you'll be surprised what you can learn there.
Which is nothing
Disagree, microsoft teaches you alot of big company stuff that helps you later. Politics, reorgs, priorizations, yearly reviews.
TC || GTFO
Yea developing on CRMs usually isn't most people's favorite. Pay is lower usually although there's a good bit of demand.
Then why are you asking us if you already made up your mind 😏
