Why is that many(in SF especially) say they have not benefited or got anything from RSUs? Were they fired or they asked more of salary and less of RSUs? One would have thought these people who worked for top tech companies including Salesforce would have got "rich"(well off). I had always thought these people would have been OK by now after years of being in the Bay Area working for top tech companies yet they have "nothing" in their banks or assets. Some have had hefty 350K salary. So confused.

I also haven’t heard this...? I think they have some in their bank accounts but probably nothing compared to software engineers. Also comp at Salesforce is not as high especially in non tech (especially RSU portion).

smart

Thank you for the information. True, they are not SEs.

Maybe they’re talking about not seeing 2x-5x growth like some of their counterparts. I know folks at Google and Facebook that feel like their upside would be much greater at high growth companies (kinda annoying because all the folks in swe and product there make a lot more and work less than me)

Never heard of this

True though. Real life examples, unfortunately. I am wondering why. I think C1 may have given us insights.

Either they’re terrible with money, lying, or “nothing in their bank accounts” is relatively high compared to your average person

I see. This may explain it.

Hi Fishes

I need help to decide
I have got 2 offers
1. Tigerhall - 45LPA
2. Zupee - 42LPA
Which one I should choose?
In Tigerhall, I will get a lot of free time as the work is same as what I have done so far in my career therefore, I can focus on more things now.
In Zupee, I will get to learn new skill which might be good for my career.
Also, comparatively in hand salary of Tigerhall is higher than Zupee (it will less tax deduction as it's a Singapore based company)
Please suggest
