Offer Comparison

I've received two job offers and could use some advice on which one to choose.

Current: Software Engineer II CTC: Around 12 LPA YOE: Almost 3 years.

Offer 1: Product Development Engineer II, Razorpay

Offer 2: Software Engineer, Pluralsight

Both offers are in the range 18 LPA to 24 LPA and Pluralsight is the higher offer in terms of CTC. Also they seem to have more employee benefits compared to razorpay. Which offer seems more appealing based on the role, WLB, company outlook, growth etc.

Also a bit skeptical about the PDE II role at Razorpay because they mention that PDE II individuals can only advance to SDE 2 after being promoted to SDE 1 first, and then to SDE 2.

Look at the tech stack and learning opportunities. What does a product development engineer typically do and how different is it from software engineer?

Some say all the core things will only be taken care of by SDEs while others say PDE has the same work that an SDE does but with a lesser pay.

PDE at Razorpay is considered way inferior then SDE. Also the quality of work given to PDE 2 is not good, they are supposed to do the menial and redundant task unless you prove to be extraordinary.

Thanks for the clarification. Wanted to know this from a Razorpay employee.

Join Pluralsight in my opinion - they just got acquired by a PE firm for $3.5 Bn- this might suggest that the PE firm views growth opportunities for PluralSight business. Also the company has been operating in Ed-tech space since 2004 - expect culture to be more sorted than Razorpay.

If the tech stack is similar - unless you got ESOPs - PluralSight it is.
