I have been offered IC2 at yelp with total pay of 150 CAD and SDE1 at amazon at 120 CAD. Both are for android engineer roles and i like both the products i would be working on. I have negotiated and these are my final numbers. Im leaning towards yelp but thinking about job security considering yelp’s business is on a decline. Please help me make a decision via poll. Would appreciate if you can comment why you chose a particular company in the poll #engineering #software TC : 90 CAD YOE: 3
Completely opposite cultures so easy decision if you know what matters to you.
What does the employees feel about the future of the company (yelp)?
It's internet. You can find someone saying what you want to hear. There's no one opinion about the future.
Job security at Yelp iffy due to company future and job security at Amazon iffy due to PIP culture. Bottom line - no job security at either place so don’t use that as the deciding factor.
😂😂😂 nailed it
I recently accepted yelp offer, but amazon adds value to resume right ?
Unless you are crazy join Amazon. Get to L5 in a year or so. Then, after 2-4 years, if yelp is still around you can join there probably multiple levels higher than what they are offering you know
You’ll work on way more impactful projects and have more opportunities to grow at Yelp. Culture is hard to beat here and people stay for a long time. Plus your TC is higher at Yelp. Sorry to say it but if Amazon wanted to match, they would.
Yelp is not going away anytime soon - the company got close to a billion in revenue even with covid. The company is not going to grow like a faang ofc. As others have said Yelp has better culture. The only reason why I would not go for Yelp is higher TC elsewhere which is also not the case for you.
My exact thoughts.
