Duuuuuuude I'm so jealous. Ive been in team match for l4 in NYC for 2 months. What language did you interview in?

What did u use to negotiate? Specifically the sign-on bonus? Looks very good. Especially base.

Congrats, this looks like a strong offer. Could you share your interview experience?

This proves that Google NYC hiring freeze is all recruiter made up bullshit. I've seen people living in NYC easily getting matches while people from Seattle or Bay Area wanting to move to NYC are blocked in team match for months so that they can fill Google Seattle and MTV.

Congrats! Did you have competing offer to negotiate or is this standard offer?

Compared to my experience as an L4 with 2.5 YoE in the Bay (which should have basically identical comp to NYC): The stock in your offer seems a bit low. Example: FB offered 165k, 10%, $75k, $360k

Can you explain the 10%? What is that and is it guaranteed?

Google proletaria Sep 10, 2019

The E4 bonus target at Facebook is 10%, versus 15% for L4 at Google. In most cases, as long as one meets expectations and the company isn't tanking, that number is basically the floor for the bonus.

Congrats! I have an L4 SWE offer too and currently in team-matching phase (no numbers yet). How long did team matching take, how was your experience. Did you have competing offers to negotiate or is this first number they came back with?

Congrats! That’s a great offer. Did you have any competing offers for negotiation?
