Hi everyone,
I'm trying to decide between two offers and would really appreciate some input from people who know these companies or have been in a similar situation.

Offer 1: Adobe (Noida) - Computer Scientist 1
Base: 35 LPA
Annual RSUs: ~20 LPA (listed stock)
Joining Bonus: 3 LPA
Performance Bonus: ~15%
Work Setup: Hybrid (3 days office in Noida)
Pros: Extremely strong brand, great culture, stable listed company, very strong long-term value because RSUs are real and liquid.

Offer 2: Mid size bangalore company (~2.5K total headcount, ~500 in India)
Name: Will reveal soon, not a very common one tho
Base: Expected 50–55 LPA (not finalized yet)
Equity: ESOPs (not public stock; depends on future liquidity events)
Joining Bonus: Possible
Work Setup: Permanent WFH (I have asked for permanent WFH, tho some employees do 2 days WFO in bangalore. HR seemed to agree, will confirm)
Pros: Much higher fixed pay + WFH flexibility.
Cons: ESOPs are not as reliable as RSUs from listed companies. Company stability and long-term growth are comparatively uncertain.

My Situation

I'm currently around ~4.5 YOE. For me, compensation matters, but stability + long-term brand value also matter. Adobe is a dream brand, but this mid size company is offering huge fixed + WFH which is tempting.

My Question

For people who have been in similar situation, which offer would be your pick?
Is 50-55 LPA fixed + ESOPs + WFH strong enough to outweigh Adobe's brand and RSU stability?

Thanks in advance 🙏
