I spoke with FB recruiter today a week after onsite and had a very tentative offer of 180 base, 250 stock, 15% bonus (so TC 270). This isn’t a huge jump from what I make now but it is enough that staying at MSFT would be silly.
My questions are:
(1) has anyone had luck with negotiating with Facebook? Even +5k on base? Or should I just go for stock?
(2) is this worth trying to take back to MFST and get them to match or exceed? Has anyone been successful with that?
(3) is there anything MSFT does benefits wise that is worth using as leverage during FB negotiations?
Thanks all!

Grats on that killer Google offer btw, damn.
2. Don’t accept counter offers.
3. Msft has a better 401k match but it’s unlikely that this would help with negotiation.
No signing bonus?
Knowing that the RSU grant is lower than E4 is huge for me, just to be able to talk to the recruiter. Thank you!
