I’ve gotten an offer from Uber and one from GitHub. Uber: €108K base, $75K stock over 4 years, €20K target bonus GitHub: €107K base, $325K stock over 4 years, bonus is unclear I liked the Uber interviews better, but the stock is significantly lower. It would be nice to hear insights on how competitive the offer is and what the culture is like at both places. Current compensation: €80K at a startup, no stock.
YOE? More stock is more stock. You'll probably afford a small apartment in Amsterdam in 4 years with almost no mortgage, or a nice apartment/house with 50% own payment.
I’m already in Amsterdam and have 10 yoe.
Bruh. GitHub. 100%. They're very employee friendly. Disconnected from the more boring aspects of Microsoft since they function independently. AND you get MSFT stock. Absolute win!
Thanks for the perspective!
If TC and stock were equal, I’d still pick GitHub. Great products users love and shovel money over for. Super sticky for enterprise once codebase and CI/CD are involved. Uber still burning cash to subsidize drivers?
What's your yoe?
10.
GitHub and it's not even close with that difference.
Yeah, I though Uber’s offer would be higher in stock actually.
YoE and level?
isn't uber supposed to be really bad wrt to wlb , why would you ever choose it over github especially with that stock
It’s not what I heard and the people I talked with seemed chill. I also liked that there’s a larger team working in the same place. The offer for GH is quite a bit higher though.
Github pays so much? That's crazy.
Bonus is likely 15% of base for your level. Possibly 20%. I’d go for a GH
Thanks for the insights! Yep, I’ll probably take that offer.
