Both for senior (L5 and L5a). For some reason google didn’t match uber’s offer:
Uber
203k base, 35k bonus, 715k RSU. TC 417K. Also eligible for refresher this year.
Google
195k base, 15% bonus, 580k RSU. TC 367k, but due to front load, first year is around 430k.
Google is Google... Uber’s offer is very appealing but I’m not sure about the WLB and company’s future.
Going to be a tough decision. Would love to hear from people working at either.

Google L5 is a no brainer. After spending a couple of years there you can try for a L5B offer at Uber or Staff level at some other companies.
Uber has become a L5A heavy company now due to so many people getting promoted in the last cycle due to Covid. There is way too much competition to get to L5B now. Promo related projects are scarce now and getting there in 3 cycles is almost impossible. Maybe 3-4 years is more likely. Also note that the promo committee is notoriously famous for rejecting the L5B promo packet 1-2 times before you either get promoted or you get frustrated and leave the company.
So, being Google L5 for 2 years and joining Uber L5B from outside is far better than navigating the internal L5A vulture world.
They need a lot more Amazonian to work on their shitty GCP. We don’t need more 996 engineers to break our WLB.
Okay then Please come buddy. Trust me overall Uber is better than Google. Google is the ship of Theseus.
