Overall Uber offer is much higher.
_______________
Expecting L5A/L5 offers from both Uber and Facebook.
What place would be a better switch if the pay is same?
FB:
Pros -
FB has better name, lesser commute (15 mins)
Cons-
Known for poor WLB and hacky eng culture (?).
Uber:
Pros -
Team seems nice and their WLB should be better (an eng on the team said ~40 H/week).
Cons -
Lesser brand name than FB, slightly longer commute (25 mins) and less perks (?).
What would you recommend an please leave comments for the reason?
My main reason to leave is recent comp cliff and career growth (L4 at Google). But I am also worried about the high expectations culture at any new place, especially after reading all the stores about Amazon and some other places. 🥲
TC:280k. Expect it to be 325k+ next year.
YOE: 6.5

If you really want to succeed, just go to Facebook off the bat. I think e6 promo is also hard but you have way more opportunities(as in team match will give way more options) and less likelihood that your project will fail given fb is just cash rich all around. Sure you can try for l5b promo but why not just do it internally. Of course unless you love your Uber team then grow there
In the end, measuring the return to myself and feel like working more for less pay (but better perks) may not be the smart choice. Thoughts?
PS: stay at google 😂

Congrats on the offers
It’s way easier to have impact since there are lots of problems with outages and room for improvement in product so opportunity for interesting work. Opportunity for promo is a big plus for Uber while I didn’t see a viable path to L6 anywhere else
Our stock was shit since last year so my rsu didn’t appreciate, but still my TC is higher than faang offers I had considering their appreciation. Just something to consider when comparing offers. Good luck choosing next gig
