No bonus at Twilio?

I heard Twilio doesnt give bonuses nor refreshers. How is that possible? what’s the incentive to stay in the company more than 4 years if you never receive refreshers? TC 300k

Do you like working there? 300 doesn’t seem too bad if it’s a great place.

I’m at Facebook atm, have an offer for 380k at Twilio but no bonus not refreshers makes me hesitate since I’ll catchup pretty easily while staying at Fb

Oops missed that context. Idk it’s hard to do exciting things at a company this big because there’s so much org and system complexity. If you know they’re giving you their best offer, I’d personally take the trade off of lower TC after a few years of high TC for the job satisfaction and experience. Depends what you like I guess.

We don’t get bonuses because it’s baked into our base pay. And we definitely get refreshers
