I am starting to think Chinese interviewers currently fail non-Chinese candidates on purpose.

The job market is absolutely brutal right now
Currently at adobe and have a couple offers: SoFi Snr Staff: ~487 250/750/20% Salesforce LMTS: ~420 245/560/15% Adobe P5 (current role) 235 base / 20% bonus TC 22: ~470 TC 23: ~490 TC 24: 430 (assuming no refreshers in 23 TC 25: 420 (assuming no refreshers in 23 Working on promo to P55 at Adobe, but it's not guaranteed - working with manager on moving to more high vis projects hopefully can grow there but I wouldn't expect it in <5 years if at all. Adobe has 3%match + ESPP, SoFi doesn't, not sure about SalesForce. Adobe level is one below the SoFi offer, and I think equal to the SalesForce offer. # Edited #s
Whats your YOE ?
>10
Are you saying you're working on promo which is probably 5 years away?
Yeah. P55 is hard to get
😊 adobe has like 3 senior roles - p4 p5 and p55. P6 usually naps to principal. I think maybe 2-5% principals in my org and p55 population is also very small
Wow
If you have a good relationship with your manager, maybe attempt to get a counter and just say you would like to be paid a market rate
I am already above what external offers would be due to stock appreciation so there isn’t much room I would say. Maybe they could do a retention grant or something
Salesforce 401k match is only up to 5k a year. Adobe’s match is definitely better. Health benefits I think sf is a little better. We don’t have the deferred future income retirement plan either.
What’s the location for these offers? Bay Area?
Seattle
Not worth it going to Sofi or Salesforce. Stay at Adobe, work on an high visibility project and aim for L6 roles at Tier 1 companies in 1-2 years. Your stock grants look good. Are you in ML ?
Not in ML just stock appreciation on sign on and first two grants. Well after today I have to adjust my comp down like 10k/yr or something :(
I'd also say that either stay put or look for other offers. You are going to take a paycut at current TC levels to go learn a new job. Btw how long have you been working at Adobe? Are those numbers common for P5 at Adobe?
Salesforce stock is crashing like anything .maybe crm is done now. I would chose SoFi
Op, is it really difficult to get p5.5? I’m thinking to join as p5.
It’s tough to get it yeah. Even the 4 to 5 can be a tough one to crack. A lot about luck honestly - getting the right visibility cross team and across orgs. You can be proactive with your manager and skip to try to be in the right place at the right time. 4 is totally fine as a terminal state
What’s yoe and offer breakdown on offer ?
What team/org at Sofi?
Have to confirm - think social platform ?
Ah okay, cool
