I'm currently in a good product based company with good WLB, have joined it few months back.
Gave Interview for Publicis Sapient parallely with other companies.
After clering the interview process at Publicis Sapient, HR ghosted me for months, and reached out few days back, extending an offer which has around 65% hike from my current base (Base to Base comparison) at the product based company.
Role offered at Publicis Sapient (Home location): Senior Experience Engineer (Frontend SDE role)
Current Role at Product Based Company (Bangalore): Software Engineer
YOE: 2 years 4 months (Full-time), 2 years 10 months (Including Internships)
Current Compensation: 14 BASE + 10% BONUS + PF (~1.5 Lakhs) + 15k USD RSUs (vested over 3 years) = ~20-21LPA (First Year)
Offer: 23.3 BASE + 5% BONUS (Pro-Rata basis, won't be applicable this year) + PF = 25.8 LPA
Fun fact: This role at Publicis Sapient is for 3.5+ YOE people, but I cleared the rounds, so is it gonna be risky in future after joining, considering my full time YOE is not even 3 years?
Is it worth taking this risk of switching from a good product based company to a service based company whose reviews are not good online in this not so good job market ??
Would appreciate any insight, Thank you so much!!
