  • Welcome to Canada, where housing is expensive and income is low. You get good Asian food though. Isn’t Hootsuite a sinking ship?

      yea it might be.... but bar Amazon and Microsoft & SAP I don't think there's really anywhere that is better than Hootsuite.... I don't really want to go to Amazon for WLB reasons and never got responses from MS applications... refer me maybe?

      Not sure about SAP being better, heard quite a bit about individual impact and you can always get stuck on a project that's going nowhere there.

    If this is for an intermediate dev position I'd take it. 100k+options is not bad for 4yoe unless you're going to msft/amazon.

    I've worked there and for context their new grad offer is 80k. For Vancouver this seems OK but not amazing. I feel like the stock is pretty worthless since they're as far away from IPO as ever and seems like they're waiting for an acquisition that may or may not happen.
