Go higher on stock. They always have more room on stock than base.

Moving without a meaningful increase in TC is not worth it unless you are in an emergency situation to leave ( i.e pip, conflict with manager,etc)

IBM qPeV00 OP Feb 3

I agree in general. Other things not listed are more vacation time and also full remote v hybrid. It's a tough decision.

Capital One wheuhrue Feb 3

Full remote vs hybrid is a very important detail you left out of your original post. In that case it’s worth it. I feel like Oracle has a slightly better reputation than IBM as well…

CrowdStrike $CRWD 💎🙌 Feb 3

Both current and OCI offer are remote? TC is pretty much the same bro. Not sure it’s worth the move unless you gain something substantial (more money, remote possibility, very interesting project, growth opportunities, etcetc)

IBM qPeV00 OP Feb 3

Main things are full remote and more vacation compared to IBM. Agree on money, it's not meaningful/same even if they agree to a counter. Work is interesting in both positions.

Oracle gg-gn Feb 3

Remote is definitely a plus and also Oracle is not backtracking and calling people back for RTO except few orgs and even then it’s easy to get exception. Vacation policy is unlimited but it depends on the team’s workload and also your own time management.

That’s so low for IC3!

Oracle killertim Feb 3

that's the TC offered these days. i joined 3 years ago and major TC increases are stock appreciation. but yes the high tc time is almost gone

Oracle wmeB00 Feb 4

OP is in the MCOL or LCOL location. I would say it may be a bit low for IC3 in OCI, but not much. Definitely worth negotiation.

Oracle killertim Feb 3

which team/org at OCI? also which IBM product? since TC is almost equivalent, learning or product should be the main voting factor.. since IBM as a company is getting old

Oracle elite121 Feb 3

IBM qPeV00 OP Feb 3

Oracle elite121 Feb 3

Cisco Elon-askss Feb 4

Nordstrom rnhf Feb 4

Oracle NullOci Feb 4
