Twilio or Arcesium?
Please help in deciding which company to join (India). Comp and level wise it's equivalent. Important considerations since comp is similar: - WLB - Learning - Growth - WFH and flexibility - Twilio stock already high? - Is there on call/pagerduty at Twilio/Arcesium? - Tech stack at Twilio/Arcesium? - (Potential internal europe movement in future, possible at Twilio?) Leaning towards Twilio. There's AI/ML work opportunities in Twilio which I want to try out, assuming good learning too. Based on interviews, Arcesium team's work sounds comfortable and easy with same as current work, so can do well easily but less learning. They did say it's not typical 9-6 job so wlb might not be that great. Yoe: 9+ TC: 40 lpa #offer #tech
Haven't heard much of Twilio. But what I know of arcesium is that it works on great products, pays well, has a bunch of smart folks but wlb is not that great. Have a couple of my friends who work there.
Make it a poll. Arcesium for me. If you want to come to eu then yes twilio But arcesium can open up some real hedge fund, hft opportunities in Amsterdam and London
There might be a huge stock upside in Twilio. For Arcesium what is the level that they are offering?. For twilio I am assuming it is staff?
Twilio, and it’s not close.
Thanks! Can you please also answer some of my other queries on Twilio mentioned in post? Is the stock price already high? What's the common tech stack? International internal transfers possible?
Op what is the TC being offered by Arcesium?
What TC are they offering you at Twilio?
What was your rsu comp? 40 lakhs is base only?
OP go by blind rules and first share your comp breakup for the offers. After that, I should be able to answer your queries around arcesium
I actually had posted the offer details, but no one looked past that. So, I removed offer details and added my current TC and yoe as per blind rules, as tc and level are equivalent in offers I just want to see other questions answered.
Did you try negotiating with Twilio with Arcesium offer ?
Nope, they told offer is final and I kinda already agreed to it, and Arcesium is yet to come up with final numbers.
Btw with 9 yoe, you could have gone for principal. I see folks with 5 yoe getting staff
