What do you do at D? What is your background?

Your new base is only an adjustment to correct for cost of living. So i wouldn't see it as a raise.

Regarding stock, is that a one time guaranteed option when you join, or are there conditions attached? Pre-IPO?

Go..

This is it , go !

If I were you I will take it

I’m joining as a solutions architect/PM for cloud enterprise systems

What technology are you working on at D ? Is 108K normal pay for SC ?

GO. Leave immediately.

How old are you and do you have any prior experience to D?

Leave. No brainer. Forget the pay alone this move will propel several opportunities for you in the future. Which company just curious.

Go. No brainer

YES

I was just talking to a younger friend who goes to Cal and It seems like the kids these days hate FAANG or at least Amazon and Facebook are not desired at all.

Curious on whether people are thinking about the ethics of their exit company when deciding to move?
