Offer comparison - Oracle(non-OCI) vs Arista

I have ncg offers from both the companies for Bay Area location. Oracle’s TC is ~ 210k first year, 180k later. While Arista’s offer is ~180k with a tiny sign on, so second year comp could be similar for both companies. The oracle offer is from a not-so-attractive org from what I have heard. Please let me know your opinion on growth at both companies and preferences.

Yes, I included target bonus in the TC. Could you please tell your experience at Arista?

Oracle is a good name on CV for freshers ... good luck 🤞🏻

Don't freshers sometimes get included in the rolling layoffs as well??

Same is the case with most non-OCI orgs at Oracle. The organization I got into is called a retirement home on blind xD. Can I DM you? I have some questions.

They don’t increase much base but give significant RSU refresh, much higher than initial grant. But it is heavily tied to how your peers review you.
