Accepted a new grad swe offer from google in mtv (120/100/15) without negotiation because I really like Google and only had a similar offer from ms. Failed 4 onsites at unicorns in sf. I know the pay band range is pretty big for L3 and mine is at the bottom. I’ve heard of negotiated offers up to (120/250/100). Is my TC stuck at bottom when promo to L4/L5 or is the position in pay band dependent at promo based on performance. If one negotiated higher at the beginning, is the room for TC to grow smaller? Edit: my question has not been answered yet so I will clarify. Should I: 1)just work harder at Google or 2)do the leetcode needful and prepare to switch companies in 1-2 year Edit: also looking for roommates. Apparently I cant afford rent 🤷♂️
Also is it possible to negotiate at google with no better offers?
Depends.
On what
Scooty?
Is that TC 145? That’s a starvation wage in the Bay Area. The good news is - you have google on your resume. Work there for a year and then you’ll be able to work anywhere.
I thought fb/goog give 100k sign on bonuses to new grads.
I believe thats only for FB returning iterns who were ranked in the top 10% of all interns.
Why does you really liking Google imply you can't negotiate ? I can't think of any scenario in which it makes sense not to negotiate.
Its done just get over it.
U better not negotiate for starting role. They can revoke the offer if they see u stuck up and spoiled. If you get in on the high paying scale and don’t get promotion in few years ur salary raise will also be low. Low salary raise can put u at risk of being laid off because it is seen as u are not performing.
They wouldn’t revoke unless it was an egregious ask in TC
I call BS here ^ . New grad or not, if you’ve done well in your interview, you should negotiate. Period. As long as the asks are not unreasonable there is always some wiggle room. Worst case, the recruiter will let you know that they have no room to negotiate. Rarely, if ever, have I heard of offer being revoked for seeming ‘spoiled’ or ‘stuck up’
Always negotiate
Huge congrats! I really want to have some experience at Google too
