Google L5 (new stuff under GCP):
202k base
421k rsu (33/33/22/12)
15% bonus
25k sign on
pros: it's Google
cons: way less $$$. Used Uber's offer to compete. Initial offer was even lower lol
Uber 5a (Uber Eats post order):
202k base
695k rsu (35/30/20/15)
35k bonus
25k sign on
pros: most $$$ and front heavy vesting (leaving after 1-2 years seems ok if things don't work out). stock seems to have good upside.
cons: stability and WLB. also overall 5a seems to be slightly below Google L5 and DoorDash E5?
DoorDash E5 (merchant experience)
210k base
700k rsu (25/25/25/25)
20k sign on
pros: refresher seems pretty good based on what my recruiter told me? people who currently work there seem to really believe in the company.
cons: WLB. stock price is already pretty high imo?
Didn't interview at Facebook due to perm issues. Now I think about it, should have done it to try to have Google compete/match? Every good Google L5 offer I've seen recently seems to have a competing offer from Facebook.
Thoughts? I'm currently thinking either Uber for the $$$ and stock upside or Google for the brand and WLB.
YOE: 7
TC: 350k

Also, uber wlb is pretty great
Finally, our stock is 📈, this is the best time to join
Google offer isn’t even worth considering. 60-70k less per year just because “it’s Google” doesn’t make sense.
Doordash offer is great too, but their stock is very high and I’d be worried about it and my tc falling dramatically. Imo the upside is low. Doordash wlb is in general way worse than Uber’s from the people I know there. Again, varies by team but the people I know work 50-60 hours a week there.
Cons of uber are less stability compared to Google. We had layoffs before COVID in late 2019 but those were mostly low performers. I personally don’t think layoffs are likely to happen anytime soon again but can’t rule it out. At Google, you can be sure there won’t be layoffs. Not that it matters since uber’s front loaded higher pay, the severance pay, and hot job market mean you won’t be hurting.
