I have received a SMTS verbal offer from Salesforce after accepting and signing an offer from Verizon.

How do i deal with the uncomfortable conversation of talking to the recruiter without burning bridges with company?

    Salesforce sucks (and yes I work at Amazon, and yes I find it 100x better). Run for Verizon.

      I apologize for the words, what i meant was Yahoo has gone through multiple layers of tumbling and growth prospects at salesforce are probably better! I wasn’t even offered stocks - it was standard amount which I receive when the RSUs vest.
      Offer — Sr. SWE - 178k + 15% + 80k

      Ah gotcha, did not know you were referring to VMG and not Verizon proper. Yeah there has been some turbulence on the side of the house but last few quarters have shown improvement and appears to be stabilizing to some degree. Depending on location that’s not a terrible offer.

    Tell them what happened. Companies like Verizon and salesforce have so many candidates, they really won't care as much as you think
