Just got offer from google and linkedin. gcp cloud security, linkedin lts. the TC is similar. T4 and senior. Cloud security is more customer facing, work with sales as full stack. LTS more backend and ML. Any thoughts?
What is lts?
Go for LinkedIn, I don’t want to see another thread “should I quit google”
Why would u want a "cloud security" role
Not familiar with cloud security, can you explain why not?
What’s the TC for each?
Around 320k
If you want a career in security the GCP role is better. If you want to Lean more towards data analytics and AI, then LinkedIn is better. All up to which opportunity contributes more to your long term goal
YOE?
Yoe?
If you are a tech guy, then please not Cloud Security.
Why?
You work for enterprise customers, and there is no choice of technology you get to work on, if there is a customer need, you work on the stuff you are allotted to, no complaining. This is same for every service based division of any firm be it Microsoft, Amazon or Google.
Google. You can always move internally. Linkedin is all right. Their hiring bar isn't as high as Google tho.
Inflated hiring bar is overrated.
@aw3some Nope, if you are working in consulting/services part of any firm like Google in this case (Cloud Security), then nope. You are as equal as an external candidate for engineering managers, also too many employees from this division try to flock to engineering teams. Plus, you learn and work on too many useless technologies, which you won't be working on as an SWE/SRE in any firm (specially if OP shifts outside Google in this case)
obviously the LinkedIn offer, unless you're drunk on kool-aid in the Blind echo chamber
FAAG is life man. Also, did Netflix ban Blind or something? I don’t think I’ve seen anyone from there on here.
Why?
