Asking for a friend: Have offers from PayPal/Braintree for T24, Sr. Software Engineer(remote) and Visa Austin(hybrid) for Staff SW Engineer. Visa tech stack is Java, Springboot etc. Braintree tech stack is ruby on rails, postgres etc. Paypal comp is about 25k more than Visa. Which company is better for stability, peace of mind, relatively a chilled out work(great WLB) and better year end appraisals. Location: Austin #tech Current TC: 160K + PAPER MONEY #visa #braintree
In terms of stability and wlb, definitely visa.
I would chose visa. There is a lot of layoffs and visa seems to be more stable
Fin serve companies like Visa traditionally suffer from high attrition due to low tc. Better for job security in that perspective.
Idk why all the folks are saying Visa. Braintree has incredible WLB. Which team/org in Braintree?
People just see paypla and think layoffs
WLB? VISA! Don’t forget PayPal’s last year bonus was quite low.
