Which company is better to join and why? #brex #plaid #software #swe
What are your offers?
Plaid, better WLB according to blind
I've heard the same.
Brex lets you choose compensation vs equity balance
Do Brex and Plaid pay similar TC?
Easy choice: one has fierce competition, the other is a near-monopoly
Can you explain which is which for those uninformed?
Brex is in insane competition with Ramp as a newer upstart and Amex/Chase as incumbents. That doesn't mean you can't get rich, but you do have some chance of picking the wrong horse. This competition exists because Plaid (and of course Stripe) have made the stable (monopolistic) platform for all other FinTech creations (esp. issuing credit card #s in this case)
TC offers?
What’s cool about Ramp is it analyzes your spend to help you spend less - that’s one of our biggest differentiators so we save businesses lots of $$. We also now have merchant blocking which our competitors don’t have. DM if you’re interested in Ramp, we are hiring.
Are you hiring for Product roles yet?
@ErLR55, are you guys hiring for remote SWE roles in other countries (e.g. Canada)?
What is the YoY growth for Brex? I imagine the numbers to be popping given their rising valuation (just increased again yesterday).
Yup
Hope you chose Brex
Whichever one is on a better growth trajectory. Didn’t the recruiters share the growth numbers with you along with the offer?
