Freshworks offer. Should I consider move?

New offer is in Chennai. Worried about brand value of Visa vs Freshworks for future moves. Goal is to crack FAANGM in the next year.

Not much brand value difference between visa vs freshworks.

Also, for cracking faangm you just need to be in a product company, brand value isn't very important. Speak from personal experience.

Both are product based companies.

Take the offer. And, in your next move to faangm, you get to ask increment on 56 LPA. That would be 75 LPA, with 8.5 year of experience. That would be huge. Freshworks is a known product based company, so don't worry about the brand value.

But yeah, the location. Chennai is tough and rude man.

If you are getting 50+ in Chennai, that's rare. Cost of loving is quite less compared to bangalore.

Btw what role is this for?

If u r gonna be at the lvl of cracking faangm soon then why bother. U should be comfortable in Visa so it’ll help that goal better. Both have good brand value
