Hi everyone

Just got offers from Microsoft, Marqeta, and TikTok for similar roles adjacent to product. All TC offers are within 10-20k of each other so comp isn’t a big deciding factor. Coming from fintech MQ is a great name with growth opportunity and it’s fully remote, but MSFT would be a great blue chip name and stability. Given that I’ve got 2 YOE, which would you choose? TikTok has the highest comp but I have reservations about wlb and culture

Microsoft is incredible as a workplace. Amazing culture, best I’ve ever seen, great stability, work life balance, and is pretty resilient.

Tik tok is the riskiest of them, could be a fad, could be something more. Also have reservations about culture and links to dictatorships

Why not try something better like Facebook or google?

Can I have the other 2 offers that you don’t accept?

I've only heard bad things about tiktok and the friends I have working at MSFT all work in different areas but they all seem to love it.

TikTok if you’re Chinese and can grind.

Your concerns about TikTok are right, unfortunately theire is no wlb. Product and people are amazing for sure, but the work life balance does not exist and is very hard getting on
