Eightfold vs Harness

Got Senior offers from both companies. Base is similar in range ~ $190k +- 10k but haven’t negotiated at all.

Eightfold had series E recently whereas harness raised Series C last year 2021 Jan. The evaluation is still pretty close of both the companies. In that regard harness seems like at a much better position financially.

Product wise I see much more value in Harness CI/CD product whereas eightfold is pretty much reducing HR hours for fortune 500 companies but what I have heard that they have very evolved top notch AI product and management/exec are all experienced Ex-FAANG.

From personal experience Eightfolds hiring and engineering bar was much hire and they hire mostly from top universities.

My take:

Financials : Harness > Eightfold
Product experience : Eightfold > Harness
Management: Eightfold > Harness
Market demand/value: Harness > Eightfold
Likelihood of going public: Harness > Eightfold
Engineering talent: Eightfold > Harness

Any further insight in either companies most welcomed as well as any suggestions.

Thank you folks :)
