I have an offer from all 3 and very confuse which one to pick at this stage. I am also considering staying at Amazon due to Covid19 situation.

I am currently at L5 level and hoping to get L6 next year.

Visa Status: H1B
Current TC: 260k
Location: Bay Area
Yoe: 9

Gusto offer: 185k base + 30k stock options (L4/L5)
Rivian offer: 190k base + 17k RSUs (Senior role)
Roblox: still waiting for the numbers

    I wouldn’t go to Gusto. Highly likely there will be layoffs within 6 months. It’s a solid business model but they focus on small businesses and it’s going to take a long time before they recover from COVID. Also, I suspect you’ll work on more cutting edge tech at one of your other options.

      ^Hmm I disagree. Given what we’ve raised the last two summers + our expense reduction plan, I think we’ll be able to sustain without layoffs. We have quite a few more reductions we could make before we’d need to start cutting jobs + 1-month in and our client base is showing more resiliency than we planned for. Josh legit just said last week at our all hands meeting he’s feeling even more confident now than he was in March about not needing to have layoffs. We’re also still hiring (albeit, largely scaled back), honoring internships, etc.

    On Visa? Stay at Amazon 100%. And L6 is a pretty good role so at least wait a couple months and interview with other FAANGs + Microsoft
