I have 2 offers and would like your help choosing which one would be the best choice for career growth, comp, job security. Ebay: - MTS 1 (Senior level) - Stable and hopefully good WLB - pre negotiation salary: TC: 250k (I might be able to negotiate till 300k) + joining bonus - Stock can 2x post recession - Good work / team. (Revenue generator) Netskope: - Hot pre-IPO company with 7.5 B valuation - salary range: 225k (base+bonus) + joining bonus - Stock price will depend on the IPO price (current Strike price is ~12), I am guessing the stock might open at 30$ if it IPOs next year (~92k/year) - High stock growth potential - Probably Bad WLB In the current market is it a good idea to join a private company vs an established name?
eBay and netskope are in completely different business. So I think you wonât be working on any core component at netskope if thatâs the case you wonât be working on anything cutting edge that folks at startups do. If thatâs the the case stock upside is only benefit ( subject to IPO in current economy )
Wow so many people help out their friends. Amazing to see detailed offers shared by them.
Neither?
Location?
eBay any day
eBay if not Payments. If eBay Payments, donât join. eBay non payments has great WLB, donât expect to work on anything interesting. You can coast and still get decent pay
Better take ebay. Netskope is a shitshow, so is its stock.
Can you please elaborate?
Please elaborate!
Continuing to interview would be the best thing to do. If that's not an option, I'd say Ebay. Simply because you mention it's an internal team. They typically aren't high performing teams within the company. If you join a product team that generates actual revenue, that's atleast the opportunity to learn and work on valuable areas. However with an internal team, you'd likely lose motivation pretty fast. Also disagree with the bad WLB for internal teams. WLB overall is ok, especially for internal teams as they are generally under lesser pressure than product teams. Stock being valued at 30 is also a huge stretch at this point.
