which one to choose? microsoft - 180k (123k base 100k stocks 30k joining bonus) amazon - 200k (145k base 60RSU 50k joining bonus) oracle oci - 305k (165k base 8000 RSU 20k joining bonus) i am leaning towards oci, pls suggest 4 YOE #oci #amazon #microsoft
Oci is dying don’t take short term gains over a longer term loss
What long term loss do you think there would be? If OCI dies, then move to msft or amzn. Taking the extra $100k is a no brainer.
I agree , only thing is Oracle is heavy on RSU’s and they give it because of the uncertain future and it vests once a year . So if they lay-off someone at the 11th month the TC and extra 100k is all poof
Start a poll for convenience
This makes 0 sense. A sinking ship won't just throw money at engineers
Tell msft and Amazon to match or GTFO.
Did you negotiate with anyone
Those are final numbers after negotiations
So difficult to say actually. You could have interviewed anywhere else
No company is worth 100k TC difference
Location? All Seattle? Amazon looks like Bay Area offer. Else they got VP approval for SDE-1 in Seattle or Amazon at SDE-2 would have been 220-230K
Yes all Seattle
No one is going to beat 305k in Seattle. Not even for next couple of years, except FB maybe
The sheer fact that others didn't match OCI says a lot.
Take OCI and work for few years to rest and vest. Be in touch of interviews and crack at higher level in other companies after few years
Money talks
No matter how much shit talk happens about Oracle in this post, I can guarantee two things. 1. Other two companies won’t match oci 2. OP will join oci. FYI, we have been going out of business for the past five years. Somehow it keeps postponing. It’s a conspiracy I think.
