Arista vs Athenahealth vs Workday(not cleared)
Yoe - ~10 company - base(with PF) + bonus + joining bonus + stocks $/yr Arista - 57 + 6 + 0 + 20k -> ~81 (Bangalore) AthenaH - 61 + 10 + 5 + 14k(paper money not public yet) -> ~71 + 5(Jb) + 12L (private stock) (Bangalore) Workday(not cleared yet but hoping and preparing hard): 57+9+3.5(reloc b)+23k -> ~85 (Role based in Chennai) All 3 packages are quite similar and can go much more or much less depending upon stock perf. I am looking to rank these companies based on brand value and how easy it would be to get calls in future from FAANG/similar companies. My perception based on this factor is: Workday > Arista >> Athenahealth - Looking for feedback Some more context: Although I am from Chennai, I am completely based in Blr now in last 10 years and sceptical to move to chennai due to future calls(or the lack of) from Blr companies. All these 3 companies have good WLB and work. My main concern in brand value in resume as I would like to switch to a better company in future.
