Offer Eval: Google L3, Amazon SDE II, Stripe L2

Nov 1, 2021 27 Comments

Currently have these offers in hand and I'm trying to arrive at a final decision.

Google L3
Base: $140,000, Total: $220,000

Amazon SDE II
Base: $175,000, Total: $315,000

Stripe L2
Base: $170,000, Total: $310,000

I'm currently leaning towards Stripe or Amazon. I liked the managers I spoke with at both. But when I read posts like these:
- https://www.teamblind.com/post/Avoid-Stripe-oMHuWXW6
- https://www.teamblind.com/post/Is-Amazon-that-bad-00nnRwe3

I can't help but have second thoughts. Now, I'm not looking to join a company to rest and vest. I'm happy to put in more hours if I enjoy what I'm working on and there are interesting problems to work on. But if regular 50 - 60 hour work weeks are the norm, I would not enjoy that.

Current TC: $140k
YOE: 2
