New grad here. I have offers from VMware and Oracle OCI. I really like the tech stack and work at the VMware team (I had been interning here). But the comp at oracle is significantly higher. Team matching is not done at Oracle yet.
Hikes and refreshers at the VMware team are very good, and talking to OCI folks I heard that they don't get hikes. Please correct me if I'm wrong about oci. Also the sign on at oracle has a 2 year clawback.
VMware TC:
Base: 15.5L
Target: 1.7L
Sign on bonus: 3.5L
Rsus: 2.8L/year for 4 years
OCI TC:
Base: 15.5L
Sign on bonus: 6L (clawback of 2 years)
RSUs: 150 rsus/year for 4 years (8.8L/year as of today's price)
Where do you guys think I should join? Is the work and team at VMware worth forgoing the tc bump? Heard good reviews in general for oci as well.
Please comment our your pov if you can, it'll really be of help!

Given the two opportunities, I would vote for OCI.
OCI has been doing pretty good in the recent past, the work is also good. Also, the pay and the hikes or refreshers at OCI are much better than the other orgs of Oracle.
While it's a perception that VMware gives good hikes and stock refreshes y-o-y, it is not guaranteed. Even if it is, the actual numbers may not be that good.
