**ADVICE NEEDED WITH 2 MAANG OFFERS**

Offer 1: Base 109K, Remote (I am in FL), $60k RSUs (4-year vesting), bonus up to 15%, a PM role which interests me but I don't immediately have background in. I will be able to stay near friends/family

Offer 2: $145k base, San Francisco area (company will pay for move), $50k signing, $105k RSU (4-year vesting), bonus up to 15%, is a supply chain role that I have background and slightly more interest in, but requires long 10-12 hour days on average.

145k in the Bay Area does not go anywhere near what 109k in FL gets you, keep COL in mind.

Better than the Bay Area in my view

I mean it’s totally up to you based off your preferences and what your looking for - they’re both very solid companies by your post:

Offer 1: Better WLB, closer to fam
Offer 2: Comp, change in scenery

Have to go with what you want not what other people think.

I'd personally take the $145K role. Just gives you more leverage to jump to the next role in 1-1.5 years.

But then, I'm not you and you're not me. Evaluate what's important to you.

Offer 2 is apple I’m assuming?

What? Like just on the week days? And what's department are you in? Does that make a difference

I would choose the job that allows you to reach your long term goals. My personal vote is with Option 2.

Option 2. Sounds more up your alley.

If the second is Apple, I would advise against it or negotiate up

Unless you enjoy working very long hours, that one is no beuno

Edit: oh it looks like you're aware of that.. in which case it's up to you I guess, but I still would advise against it

If you want Apple on the resume you can work at an Apple store for a little while. The resume scanning bots are pretty bad.

OP: Did you take the offer? In a similar situation and curious what your ended up doing.

Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.
