Level 3 @ Bay Area Around 2-3 years of experience. Masters degree. Base:140 Sign on:25k GSU: 100k over 4 years Retention: 165k over 4 years (retention is not in stocks)
What is retention bonus?
See comment below. Hope your h1 got picked
What is retention? How does one get it? I recently got a Google offer and it doesnt say anything about retention. It only has Base, sign-on and GSU.
Retention bonus is to stay in the team which I will come in due to my experience with that technology as a part of acquisition.
What is your offer?
Base is really high. Don't expect much increases in case, even if you get promoted.
How is the total comp? Kinda get a feeling that I am being underpaid as I am coming through an acquihire
Overall comp looks good for L3 if I understand the retention part correctly. Retention + RSU for 4 years + base is around the L3 mark.
