Hello everyone, need help in deciding whether to choose Walmart offer or not. Currently working at VMware but after acquisition by Broadcom, situation here is very unstable. Y.O.E: 4 years Current TC: 23.6 LPA fixed + 17 % annual bonus + around 24Lac RSUs for 1 year (SRE role level 2) Offered TC at Walmart: 26 LPA fixed + 15% annual bonus + around 4 Lacs RSU for 1 year + 4 Lacs joining bonus (IN3 level offered) Offered TC at Walmart is fixed, this is the offer after negotiation, HR told this is the max they can offer me. I know there is very little hike in base pay and my total compensation is going down because of high RSUs at VMware Broadcom has given good no of RSUs which has increased overall compensation but to collect those RSUs we need to survive here from upcoming layoffs which nobody is sure off. Next possible layoff could be in March end or April beginning, till that time I will get the first quarterly vesting in mid March. Should I stay here and collect March vesting and prepare for other companies or should I take Walmart offer which is way less in total as compared to VMware to get the job stability. Walmart has shift timings as well like 6 am to 2pm then 2pm to 10 pm which is also a drawback ( SRE role) Work at Walmart is more of operations role mostly monitoring and observability. Help me to choose whether to take Walmart offer or not. #tech #layoffs #vmware #walmart #sre #offer #devops
What is LPA?
Lakhs per annum
Are you a SRE in VMW too ? If not, then don't bother about the walmart offer.
Yes SRE role at VMware
If you think you can survive in Broadcom stay for their RSUs as I know it personally. Else Walmart might be good open for short term before your next switch. All the best.
Take walmart offer you don't know when you will be layed off.

Very difficult to pick. If they have wfh you could consider Walmart. Else doesn't look very promising.

If your commute is bad then switch(my perspective, hate wasting time in travel), else stay and try for better offer. Try for SDE roles.
