Hey folks, need some help deciding.
I have two offers right now -

1. Airbnb (30L year 1 TC) - Payments Compliance team.
2. Phonepe - 28L cash(base + jb) + 2.7L esops/year.

Which one should I go for and why?

On a similar note - Open to opportunities especially in Hyderabad even if offered TC is slightly lesser than the above numbers. If anyone can refer me to a hyd based opportunity, please dm or comment.

Edit: Updated phonepe numbers

YOE: 0.5
TC: 0(resigned)

  • Airbnb has the better international prestige. It’s important if you need to switch companies again or want to go abroad some day.

    Plus, I’m sure you can go back to them to get them to match whatever Phonepe is offering.

    Phonepe will more likely have better interesting work though.

      I had already accepted Airbnb's offer since Phonepe was delaying their interviews. Asking Airbnb to improve the offer now seems in bad faith and unlikely to work.

    Airbnb will be much better in terms of overall growth and brand value.

      Thanks @Sprinklr.
      @Cisco, I guess that depends. I believe I was offered a base this high because I informed my recruiters of the competing offers. Without them, I'm pretty sure I would have been offered the new grad salary.

      Okay. It's bad for new grad then. Since lot other companies like Google, Amazon giving more tc. I feel betrayed coz phonepe problems were really good level.

  • What other folks said about brand. Also I don't think phonepe will beat Airbnb tc, have heard Airbnb pay really for sde 2 and above. 30L at 0.5 yoe is pretty much top of the band
