I’m trying to evaluate some criteria for compensation. How much is a “brand name” company worth to you? Would you rather be paid less working for a big brand, or paid more working for a smaller / less known company?

The only things I evaluate in a company are: pay, benefits, cost of those benefits, and general ethics of the company; in that order.

These are good ones C1. Do you work in consulting or have you exited?

Brand name helps in first 1-2 jobs. After that, you can chart your own course based on interests and credentials.

True A1 - I think it’s time I reflect more on my interests and not chase a name

My take is who cares about a “brand name” company, I would rather be at a smaller company where I can make a difference.

Good take CEO1 - did you always have this mindset in your career or did an experience change things?

I work for a large bank and it tends to pay better than the smaller banks for my role.

Hm yeah I guess in some cases the brand names pay more. What role are you in?
