Facebook offer comp

I've seen this a few times here: "E3: $107k-$125k salary, $40k stocks a year, 10% bonus E4: $140k-160k salary, $70k stocks a year, 10% bonus E5: $170k-$195k salary, $120k stocks a year, 15% bonus E6: $200k-$220k salary, $200k stocks a year, 20% bonus" Are these numbers real? Are they from offers or does it include refreshers?

At what grade PhDs join? And MS?

PhD L4, MS/BS L3

Thanks. Could you also tell what would be the title of person joining at L4? Is it Member of Technical Staff? I am just trying to get a better sense.

Very rarely seen an external industry hire at that level. Either they’re down-leveled or passed on. So, can’t guarantee those numbers but all others are true!

E3 - E5 numbers are accurate, not sure about E6 though. These stock numbers are either from offer for the first 4 years or the refresher after. You don’t get both at the same time.

Not sure what you mean by you don’t get both at the same time.

Can anyone give expected time to climb the E3-E6 ladder?

Uber #muga Dec 6, 2017

~2 years each to E4 and E5. E5 is terminal, but expect to still show improvement every cycle even if terminal E5

Have you seen it go faster than that? I think I’ll be more motivated if I can climb the ladder quickly.
