Currently at Microsoft, level 61. Currently CTC not even worth mentioning. YOE - 3.5
Offer from Google -
L4
CTC - 70LPA INR. ( Base + 33% stocks + joining bonus) (36+25+8) pretty standard offer
Offer from FB -
E4
CTC - 131GBP ( Base +25% stocks + joining) (85 + 30 + 16)
Need help in deciding.
Money is not the only factor. Need perspectives about growth, work, and opportunities to eventually moving to US.
I know that offer for india is very good. Also need a comparison idea to the london offer.
Also, if i reject any offer now, will that affect my chances of joining the company in future?

Google > Facebook
Relocation from google is easy. You can relocate to US or london after a year.
WLB at google >> Facebook
With Meta’s recent stock crash, I don’t think Meta is that great an opportunity anymore.
My vote goes to Google.
People need to realise life doesn't end at Google. Their monopoly has been more or less broken by many tech companies in India too.
Apart from london exposure how is Facebook a better opportunity.
1. High taxes in london. OP won’t save much.
2. Bad WLB at meta
3. Stagnant salaries.
4. Away from friends/family
5. Dating scenario is bad for Indian males. If OP is a woman, then I guess it’s fine.
My friend in bloomberg london often feels lonely cuz he had to leave his girlfriend. And now he can’t get a gf there as Indians are heavily stereotyped.
Google has better brand value.
