Having difficulty to choose between both: How stable is Uber now ? Are there any layoffs again ? I see they are slowly turning out to be profitable. Worried about stability as i am on visa right now. Microsoft has an upper hand over visa stability. Any suggestions on which one to opt ?

What’s your split ?

Yoe ? You are very close to mine but for one level below, i think you got a good deal than mine.
2 at time of interview/offer. There was a pretty big delay from interview to actually starting around 4 months or so. I did 3 rounds of negotiation.
Did they move on base and/or level when you guys negotiated ?
For me, it was both.
Great offers. Good luck OP.

Is Israel getting bad PR the reason for banning tik tok?
No guarantees about Uber stability ever, under Dara. After every layoff we thought this will be the last one. They also do micro-layoffs which aren’t widely publicized. The pay is better at Uber, but you pay with job stability :-)
Wait what's micro layoffs?
Smaller teams/projects getting canned, I don’t have the links but remember people were talking about this in the Uber Blind. Maybe non-eng though, not sure. One was here, earlier this year: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/01/23/technology/uber-postmates-layoffs.amp.html?referringSource=articleShare
