I think stripe has more equity upside but I hear good things about Salesforce culture. Both are great names to have on the resume. Really should be about team and career growth.

I’ve you’re looking for the best prestige / exit ops, I am leaning towards Stripe. They are very highly regarded and have a lot of former MBB / FAANG working there.

Depends though what interests you most. Salesforce has great areas too but also some dead spots too.

What are the dead spots you've heard about? Any particular functional areas? I work in Innovation.

I thought the upside at stripe is now capped with the way they give out equity? Either way still would do Stripe but I’ve heard a lot of grumbling on stripes equity policy

I’m hitting a point where I am enjoying consulting (advisory) but I’m not sure the idea of narrowing in on a specific industry and exact skillset appeals to me. Seems like MBB is broader and I’m curious (also not assuming I could even get in, but I want to explore the option).

Seven senior consultants arrive in a sack
Eight associates sneak in the back
