Which would you guys recommend for transferrable skills, better career prospects, salary, work culture etc.

Thanks. Lost right now
Pure SWE in tech
1. FAANG + Bytedance
2. Shopee
3. Grab, Lazada, 2nd tier ecommerce coy e.g. travel platforms
4. Other well-funded startups

top-tier alternatives (in no order)
- AWS (more biz / stakeholder mgmt)
- IT / SWE role in big bank or MNC (if you have interest in finance)
- Quant finance / hedge fund (if you wanna pursue quant / high finance)
- TAP (best govt job in tech by far)
