Context: I’m in Boston and currently unemployed but at the senior level, frontend First offer came from zulily in Seattle. They hit with a very high offer, signing bonus, RSUs, and relocation My fears are the glassdoor reviews for the company which seem to rate it fairly lowly. My second offer is sonder in San Francisco Loved the team, loved the product, but disliked San Francisco. I think the offer is a little lower than expected even adjusting for the area. If it were in Boston I would have taken it right away though Now there are some that are a little in the dark One is Airbnb. I completed an onsite but haven’t heard from them after. I’ve tried contacting them but it’s been quite the task. Should I give up on that? Next is a company called Lose It! In Boston. They haven’t made an offer but they seemed very interesting. Great work life balance, good location. The weird thing is they interviewed me as a front end developer for a largely mobile app driven company Finally, I was considering contacting my old manager at Akamai and just asking if they had openings What do you guys think?
Why don't like san Francisco?
The boring answer is that it just doesn’t vibe with me, I don’t see a life there. Also I’m single and 27 so don’t reckon dating there is gonna be a good plan
I have had interviews with amazon but only in Seattle, never seemed like a good match
Try again in Boston. Alexa is hiring like mad and AWS storage gateway is a good product (or so I’ve heard) in Seaport
can you provide the TC breakdown for each offer.
135k San Francisco offer 171k Seattle offer Still waiting for the Boston one but it would probably be 120-140
Any updates?
