Trying to decide between a few offers with similar TC +/- 50-60k. The list from highest to lowest TC: - Salesforce (big sign-on, so win for first 2 yrs, annual bonus 15%, but heard typically no refreshers?): 210k|400k/4yr|30k+30k signon+anniversary, plus 15% bonus => TC: 310-340k + bonus (~31k) - Nvidia (no bonus typically, but there's annual refreshers): 200k|480k/4yr|15k+15k signon+anniv => TC: 320-335k + refresher (~25-30% initial = ~120-140k/4yr = ~30-36k/yr) - Google (both are there, but feel the TC is lowballed): 175k|500k/4yr|25k signon, plus some bonus unsure of %age => TC: 300-325k + bonus - Twilio: 190k|440k/4yr|10k+10k signon+anniv => TC: 300-310k + bonus(?) Which company would you pick based on future personal finance and career growth? Current TC: 250k YOE: 10 Bay area #software #swe #profit #personalfinance #growth #salesforce #nvidia #google #twilio
What are the offer details like TC?
What levels were offers for? I assume senior L5 for Google? Is this Bay Area?
SF SMTS (I believe that's what they call it), Nvidia/Twilio leveled at IC4 (although I think according to levels these are not the same), and Google leveled at senior L4. I am not so sure about Google since the work is more operational heavy than dev, and just read article on SRE Borg team issues this morning (not the same team, just cautious if culture is spreading).
Very surprised to still see Google ranked #1 even with lowball tactics? Also I am not sure if Google stock will perform well.
Could you share your interview exp at Nvidia?
Interview was great. Best experience so far, and fastest turnaround time (esp compared to G). I had 7 rounds: HM, 2 technical round, 1 design round, another manager, product mgr, 1 last design round. Didn't even talk to the recruiter first, the HM basically screened me first. Decision came back within hours after last interview. Everyone was really smart, friendly. Team is very diverse, and geographically distributed. They didn't seem to care where you work from - remote or office (though I'm in bay area so I guess at some point I'll be in HQ office). One thing I wish is that they take it a bit slower, so I don't have to rush other companies and also have time to consider offers.
Salesforce is trash
Why not provide the TC details of your offers ?
