The pandemic point for Uber's stability is actually an amazing valid point to consider. The product that you'll be working on also matters with current times.

Was your offer from google bigger than your Uber Offer (salary-wise)?

Soon you will become a boss of your life Kevin.

[goodwish]

notes: a stable job, can easily change team inside the company.

[josem]

Good insight. Something we all have to take into consideration

[entrophyhunter]

Were both positions SDE2 positions? Do you mind making a video on the interview prepping process for both companies?

[maikef]

This channel was once relatable now it’s just about offers and job hopping at FAANG

[mindfuel]

In hindsight, uber was more stable than Google as of today for job security. Google layoffs were brutal this year . Uber is still hanging in there.😢

[techfornoobs]

More stability always means less upside. There’s a trade off there.

[ibrahimalshubaily]

Google is not stable either.. we didn't know a year ago though.

Hey do u have any advice for bootcamp grads, self taught, we lowkey get lucky getting in a company but it’s hard to find direction

[Aripoma]

Can you break down the total compensation for Uber. What was the package

[badrulhussain]

Hi Kevin, why would you want to go off as a contractor after working in Google or at any FAANG. I heard you can make more money than contractors in a FAANG?

[kickradar]

What is Google's cooldown after an onsite reject?

[nonefvnfvnjnjnjevjenjvonej]

Hope you're wife is doing well. Where is she? Haven't seen her in a long time.

[mindlessdeveloper]

smart decision based on uber having a toxic revolving door

[jjayguy]

Uber vs Google? Google everyday! There's no competition!!!

[namvu]

Man, i cant wait to hit up your ldap when I start google 😅😅

[theducated]

does stable job matter if you are making 300k? You could probably get another job if you ever happen to get fired lol

[LuckyCatTom]

I'm still wondering if 450k l5 offers ppl mention on Blind are a real thing :) 300k seems to be an average. Any specific plans regarding your own business? Will it be consulting?
