I am with Salesforce and currently in last stage of interview with Maersk. I believe I will get 25% raise (of course no stock options). Salesforce BT have changed a lot and with global operating model (i have team jn US and aindia) my work life balance is taking a toll. Calls starts after 7.30 and ends like 12 am or so. AMER people doesn't even care about Indian counterparts and just expect daily calls at 9.30 PM to 10.30. It's aggressive and not sustainable. In last 6 months, I haven't spent time with my 3 year old daughter in the evening because I have these stupid calls. I can't be carefree or be a rebel, at the end we are judged on performance. Current tc - 65 Lpa + 15% bonus + stocks (6 Lpa) I might get 25% raise in Maersk in base pay with 20% bonus. Good side of being at Salesforce is stock options, potential transfers to other groups. But not sure about job stability and Salesforce strategy. Maersk on other side is not a tech company and doesn't have stock options. Again not sure about work life balance and job stability. Should I stay with Salesforce or jump to Maersk?
I have an offer for smts position can you tell me which are good teams at sales force and which teams I should avoid in bangalore ?
Shipping is a highly cyclical industry. Maersk revenue is down 65% y.y and they’re cutting 10k jobs to start with. Pick your poison
Look in tech, FAANG level , after Maersk switching into tech will be tough
That will come into the highly paid position category in Maersk. Keep that in mind. Maersk often tends to Target people from highly paid positions in layoffs Source: ex-Maersk here.
There are lot of other core tech companies hiring in Bangalore. Looking at your TC you seems to be at SMTS ( though at the upper band) you should land somewhere better. That being said, SFDC stock is expected to perform better in next one year, imo, if you can find some other team which works on kinda similar stuff, try that first. Talk to people leaders on the floor/ attend cross functional meetings and build a connection. Why I am saying this- new job will take its own sweet time and no guarantee that you’d get time with your kid. I also work with teams across tz, I am based out of Bangalore, and we mutually adjust, like if you’re ending late don’t start early or if you start early don’t end late. Obviously there are few exceptions but then it can’t be all rosy.
Pls avoid. You might get a better WLB but not good even for mid term.
