LinkedIn offer sanity check

3 yoe, leveled as SWE, Sunnyvale 155/220/50 I’ve seen higher numbers on here, so I’m wondering if this is average? Team and manager seem good just want to check numbers.

Pretty insane, 210k TC is very high for 3 years of professional experience. Take it.

How was the process for you?

It was good. I had domain knowledge, leetcode, system design. and behavioral interview rounds. All questions were fair and achievable, no tricks required. I thought all my interviewers would be good people to work with. Overall good process.

Did you have other offers ? Looks pretty high. How did you negotiate?

I initially set recruiter expectations based on numbers I saw here. The recruiter came back with slightly lower numbers, but I didn’t have any real leverage to negotiate with.

You could have gotten senior if you did well. But it looks good for swe
