#

that means renege stripe

indigo ermine
#

stripe also does yearly liquidity events, i’m pretty sure it’s guaranteed. Not 100% sure on this though

fervent yoke
#

what i was thinking was maybe i could stay at stripe for a year and make an easy transition to E4 at Google but idk how optimistic that would be cause i heard internal promos at Google are slower

#

@fervent yoke average promotion for stripe is a 1.5-2 years

#

new grad^

#

my close friend chose google over stripe

#

i dont think promotion wise it would matter in the long run but i would say ur idea isnt bad @fervent yoke

#

i would ask more people

fervent yoke
#

yeah i’m just trying to get as much input if i hopefully get both offers in hand

#

i don’t really think i can go wrong with either but just want to pick the best

spice yoke
#

good shit though

#

i feel u bro

#

i think google though ngl

#

for me at least

#

just my gut feeling but team is also more important

fervent yoke
#

i feel like if i get a good’s team

#

it’s super hard not to take google

spice yoke
#

i feel u

#

u just gotta see

fervent yoke
#

they have remote for senior+

#

it’s apparently a negotiable aspect

#

yeah but mainly business from what i hear

glad crystal
#

google also has a madison office

#

im guessing epic is in madison / verona?

#

id pick google j cuz of name recognition n value

#

but my goals r diff from urs

indigo ermine
#

which company do u want to stay in the long run?

fervent yoke
#

oh hell nah screw wisconsin i never want to go back

fervent yoke
#

unless stripe gives me remote

#

then idc

indigo ermine
# fervent yoke google fs

you can always reinterview but you might as well choose the company u wanna be with and not go through the trouble of hoping you get it again

glad crystal

#

stripe promos are not fast either

fervent yoke
indigo ermine
#

sure but u can rush google promo too if u try hard enough

#

the two drawbacks of google are slower promos and no ipo upside. That’s it

glad crystal
#

pick google lol

indigo ermine
#

just go google if u get a team u like

#

but accept stripe for now

fervent yoke
#

yeah i already did

#

they gave me a week no extensions

#

that’s what i don’t know

indigo ermine
#

probably but stripe isn’t the only high growth company in the world

fervent yoke
#

if they don’t google fs with a good team

indigo ermine
#

google will get u interviews at any of the others, and you already said u would rather be at google long term than stripe

#

no

#

remote is dying

glad crystal
#

for now imo get a job that maximizes ur potential to move to where u wanna in the long run. google imo will open more doors to other jobs than stripe will

indigo ermine
#

^ yes

#

u could always get a team at google u just hate

#

fintech has a lot of regulation challenges which could affect a lot, google is so safe

fervent yoke
#

yeah i think it’s all gonna depend on team

spice yoke
#

dude is tryna live the remote life

#

@fervent yoke which location u want? im curious

fervent yoke
#

for right now? SF fs but future i want to be back in the metro detroit area

jolly knot
#
