The end of Backdoor Roth?!
Cash is king. Goto Amazon and invest the cash in good stocks. 2X easily when market rebounds. Congrats!
Say company A offers 10k/mo in cash and company B offers 10k/mo in stock. Assume Stocks get back to normal in 1yr. For first one year, you benefit by taking cash and by joining company A and you purchase company B stock. In second year, Company B would have given you more in stock. Even when you take cash and invest in company B stock, you won't make the same money. When you join company B, you buy company B stocks with your future money. All at once for the next 4 years at a cheaper price. When you join company A, you first earn it and then invest. By this time, 1)you pay taxes and invest less. 2) stocks might have already been appreciated enough. Always join company B if you think their stock is at discount. If not, find another company C 😂
How were the interviews? Mostly straight from lc?
Amazon is relatively easy; all coding questions are easy-middle level from LC and pretty straightforward. system design is a very common topic Uber is harder, questions are not from LC (as least I didn't see them), middle-hard level, but you don't need to finish them perfectly. system design is also a common topic.
Nice. 😁 I am considering boomerang back to amzn. But i ve seen ppl get 450k in the bay for L5.
Hi congrats on your offers! Would you mind sharing your prep for coding and sys. design? Were most of your coding questions medium difficulty? Thank you in advance.
See my reply above, I prepare them by doing the company-tag questions on LC and sys is common topic, totally not very hard.
That's massive offer by Amazon!!
I might know the team you matched with for Amazon, I dmed you from my other account
I'd take Amazon, much higher comp and better in economic instability
what does Uber Platform do?
data platform - ingest data from all uber products and provide metric/dashboard
Amazon, no brainer. If you had gotten L5a, then you’d be 1.5x that TC, and the decision might be different
Uber didn't give L5a for my 3-year experience.
How did you get signon over 2 years my offer was the same as yours except my base is 177k
Recruiter tried to make the first two years TC the same, so split the sign on. What's your sign on and RSU ?
I negotiated it and they gave me the same sign on I have the same offer as you except $177k base cause I’m 5 YOE
wow they really reduced RSU. Might be due to stock performance
u only supposed to reduce RSU if stock doing real good not other way around
Lol @Uber was thinking the same. Although it's close to exactly the same number of shares I got, just 1/2 the share price lol
