Hi. I got an offer from Blend at IC4 level. Can folks from Blend say how they are in terms of 1) Growth - Career growth & package growth (hikes) 2) Engineering Culture 3) WLB Blend offer: 450K (Can choose cash to stocks ratio) YOE: 8 #wlb #blend #growth #hike
I see the stock is going down like no other. What is the bear case? Surprised paying that much cash without earnings potential. Also cash to stock, is that sustainable in the upcoming years?
Do you have compete offer?
No. Blend was my first offer
At the risk of repeating things I've said in other threads (see the "I don't understand the negativity here" post from maybe a month ago), the engineering culture here is bad, and it's enforced from the top-down as if it's a good thing. Lower-level engineers don't really experience it as much since we silo them off from upper management and other teams, but as an IC4 you'll likely be interfacing with other teams and management enough to experience some of the worst aspects of it. As I've said elsewhere: you can get similar compensation other places with better culture. If you like the stock, buy it on the open market, but don't expect much movement for a while - management has been clear in recent all-hands that they see a tough year ahead for us. If you're here already and have a good strike price on your options, there are reasons to stay. For anyone else, I can't think of any redeeming qualities. If you want to grow here as an engineer beyond IC4, your growth will be more as a politician than an engineer.
What's l4 equivalent to at FAANG?
