Salesforce since it might get acquired by Microsoft or Google
Isn't Salesforce too big to be acquired?
What’s the stack in salesforce?
Service cloud team
If you can appeal HC for L5, that means your interviews went pretty good, and 245k TC is definitely on the lower side in that situation. Try to negotiate once you get real numbers.
You should negotiate your Google TC. If coming to salesforce, make sure the team is good and the work is something you like.
My gf is L3 and will make 238k this year. Closer to promo though. Most likely in oct.
Get Google TC to go up and choose that. Don't come to Salesforce.
I forgot to add "If you care about a strong engineering culture"
Is Salesforce good in sales ops etc teams?
I heard it’s hard to grow your career at google, that’s my only dilemma to choose google.
Hard as in?
Less opportunities/projects to grow and more competition.
Got numbers from google. Updated post
Let me give you one honest advice: ask for 200K base at SF and come here. Get promoted to L in 1-1.5 years and P in another 2 years. Then you are close to little RSU to vest but you have owned projects and features. Then make decision: you get refresh and you stay with us, or you leave to Google targeting T6 but they eventually down level you to T5.
The one with more TC or gtfo
Not always. Depends on growth.
