This week I got a job offer from these 3 companies, not sure which to choose, or if I should even leave Indeed Shopee - Senior Machine Learning Engineer, 150k salary + 25k bonus + 180/4 k RSU Grab - Lead Data Scientist, G5, 150k salary + 30k bonus + 100/4 k RSU TikTok - Senior Machine Learning Engineer 2-2, 156k salary + 26k bonus + 200/4 k RSU Right now at Indeed, I have Senior role, with a 138k salary + 14k bonus + 150/4 k RSU. TC is the lowest, great WLB, but I want to have faster career growth I have 6 years of experiences, and am a foreigner All numbers are in SGD Updates: Thanks guys for giving me your advice. I decided to stay with Indeed with a small counter offer. Still have a FOMO cause Grab and Shopee's stock can skyrocket. I will pour all my savings to buy SEA and Grab stocks, so if later their stocks raise, I will not regret my decision today #grab #bytedance #shopee #indeed
Yoe?
6 years
YOE and are you a local? Shopee and TitkTok have a questionable culture. Have heard good feedback on Indeed’s culture and WLB
6 yoe, and I'm foreigners. My studies and working experiences are all in SG
You will last max 1.5 years in TikTok. Shopee I heard horror stories. Grab not sure.
Are you L2-II in indeed? How is the career growth in indeed?
L2-II is only for SWE, not for DS. The career growth path is transparent, clear and systematic, but too slow I think
Is it slow for DS roles or also for swe roles? Also can you explain like how long does it take for promo? I have an offer from them for L2 which I think I will accept. But if career growth is too slow then not sure.
Grab, the "lead" title will help your advancement. Everybody knows that Indeed is a place to coast, not for advancement. On the negative side, Grab isn't doing well...
Isn't Grab 'lead' = G5 = Senior at other company?
I don't know. Is it?
Stay at Indeed. TikTok and Shopee literally glorify overwork and have terrible work culture. Grab is an unsustainable business, won't be around for very long.
eh, why do you think so? Just one bad quarter doesn't mean their business will corrupt
Because the whole business makes no sense at all. They are pouring money into extremely price sensitive, low margin businesses serving customers that have very low disposable income in some of the poorest parts of the world. Essentially subsidising food and transport. A good example will be the Malaysian supermarket they just acquired.
i wouldn’t count on those tiktok rsu becoming real money any time soon that being said, i’d simply present ur strongest offer to indeed and see if they counter
Why no one suggest me to go to TikTok, yet TikTok has the highest vote count?
I think people jump and vote however qualitative comments will give you a lot more details
I would suggest stay at Indeed and try for FAANG, none of the other mentioned companies can give you work satisfaction (plus their work culture is quite horrible)
+1
Try even amazon horror?
