Come to Marvell. Good place to stay safe during these tough times! Startup would be a toss of coin anytime!
Startup is better
I would go with startup since it's already series D if you don't foresee the need for real rsu money in short term. Marvell is not able to retain key talent and management spends too much time doing reorgs. It might be a bit safer but Marvell is also known for layoffs, first now starting with China location. Just depends on your BU doing well or not. If in CE maybe better
Why do you think ce is better?
If the most profitable BUs, then no problem. CE gives you ability to get more exposure to different projects and resources are shared among BUs so job security is better unless 1) there's overhiring 2) Marvell decides to go route of Broadcom and get rid of CE, which is unlikely
At Marvell it depends what team and what leader. Can you share what BU?
Storage
I would say come to Marvell, think long term outlook is promising.
Did you go with Startup or Marvell?
Accepted startup offer but Marvell is still pushing. Just worried about layoffs
Marvel, safe in such times.
