A recruiter reached out to me and put me through the interview loop for Confluent, to which I was downleveled to L2, their new grad equivalent. My current team does not have the most interesting product, and a lot of effort is put towards Ops, refactoring old packages, a lot of internal tooling which sometimes makes learning feel stagnant. It is obviously risky to leave a new team for something unknown, but from speaking to the manager and the engineers, there is a higher level of ownership and scope, as well as much more depth, getting into the weeds of distributed systems, networks, and such. However, AWS I assume looks good on a resume, and I wouldn't lose a year of progress. TC is about the same for both companies, and Confluent is remote which is a plus. Does anyone on the inside have more context or has anyone else been given a similar decision? YoE: 1 TC: 165k CAD
