I just started interviewing and actually haven't applied to any NYC based companies (I'm based in Boston) but got a call from Wework so thought let's try. My goal is to move to NYC within next yr. Onsite went well and got this offer after some long negotiation: Base: 190k + 5k relo RSUs: 180k vested over 3yrs No sign-on bonus YOE: 7 I'm currently a Lead/Principal Engineer architecting a big application but getting downlevelled to Software Engineer L4 I have another offer in Boston which i don't like much and have another onsite interview in Boston. I just started applying to other NYC based companies. Should I take the offer or keep looking for better ones in NYC?
Pretty solid offer even by FANG standards. WeWork is spending money like a drunken sailor. I was not impressed by the talent
Even for NYC?
Median L4 offer at Google is around $250k TC. You would probably get the same at Google. Once you discount the relatively lower hiring bar, 235k is not too shabby.
Given 7 yoe the offer is on the low side assuming that the wework offer is for Boston. If it's for NYC then def too low.
Yeah its for NYC not Boston :(
:(
Tc is 255? 7 yoe at wework? For l4 engineer? That’s so much
Start grinding leetcode
For wework? Lol
Yea I get that but I don’t think this offer is real. Staff engineers at google make tc 260? That mean their l4 is probably 200 max. L4 at wework for 255? As low ball? Lol something doesn’t add up
Bull. Staff at Google is minimum of 400k.
Lol another guy I'm talking to who got an offer at wework his TC is 205k+320k/3 rsu + 20k signon for same YOE and you're saying this is too much 🙄
Lol "Lead/Principal Engineer" at a bank and does Pikachu face at being "downleveled".
Obviously, why being a lead at bank is worthless according to you? That's not my inflated title, its something I've earned. Inflated title is VP
