Just got an offer for L4 at Google in MV. TC is 315k per year (excluding sign on and refresher). Sign on is 50k for the first year. How does the refresher works? I know we don't get any the first year, but after that, is it a percentage of your original grant? Thank you
It's based on your performance review. Also that's a good offer, congrats.
Thank you. So basically, you get actual cash from your refresher only at the end of the third year since they are vesting 25/25/25/25?
I'm not sure I understand. It vests as you said, but it starts vesting the year you get it.
You didn’t ask the recruiter?
Of course I did, but got the usual response that nothing is sure and is based on performance, but thought someone here would have more info for me.
So that’s your answer
It doesn't depend on original grant. At L4 you'll get around 80k if you meets expectations
That would mean I'd have a huge down cliff if I don't get promoted shortly after being hired.
Cliffs happen due to stock growth. Without a significant stock growth, you won't face one. You'll get high refreshers as your ratings improve.
Impressive offer. Congrats. How did you manage such a high number? Did you have competing offers, care to let us know which companies and whether they were as strong?
I did have a strong competitive offer from another big tech. They matched it, but since it was a east coast offer, cost of living and taxes are less so I'm still missing a chunk.
Did G ask you for proof of that offer? Also, can you tell us that other company name?
Thanks, I would still like to try and get a few more when I'm ready to accept it though, but I know it's the top L4 band and low of L5 already. What's EE by the way and what do you mean by not too much will be expected of me?
I'm not at 350k if that is what you meant. Didn't know most Noogler were getting 2 or 3 out of 5. I guess that's what also drive your bonus? What's the max you can get as an L4 with 15% as a target?
Yoe?

Worried that our top performer is an attrition risk. How do managers handle this?
