Recently moved to Phoenix, Arizona. Planning to apply for SDE jobs at Carvana and GoDaddy. Which one is better company for Software Engineers in Phoenix?
Godaddy!
GoDaddy is a great company. Comp isn't amazing but it beats Carvana's. Honestly the only reason not to choose GoDaddy is a better comp package elsewhere. So if the money is better at GoDaddy... Take it.
Definitely GoDaddy has better comp than carvana. how is the promotion in the GoDaddy?
I haven't had issues with promo. For me it's about 2 years between promos but that will depend on how you level and perform. There's a lot of opportunity for growth and great engineers and challenging projects. Amazing WLB, if you have a family or plan to start one, there really isn't a better place to work.
Carvana pays well. I'm sceptical to think GoDaddy could match the TC here for a solid engineer
Base salary at GoDaddy is low compare to Carvana. But other perks like stocks, sign on bonus etc. makes over all TC higher
They have all that here. You generally won't get RSUs unless you're a senior. But even with the recent stock tank, the TC and WLB here are both good
Never worked at those two. But if you want ultra chill WLB then Phoenix has Amex and USAA. And if you want no WLB we have Amazon.
Amazon is the same everywhere
