In have FB/G offers close to 300k. MS recruiter after knowing I have offers get desperate to know these numbers. Should I tell it to her or first let her tell me first Microsoft offer. I have experienced in past that when I tell the expectations, companies reduce it by 15-25% and come up with lame excuses such as it is maximum of this band. Here they are having me at initial L63 or high L62. Please suggest me best strategy to negotiate. Thanks! I want to join MS if they trust and match me.
300k is about E4/T4 at F/G. Why would you possibly want to join msft L63 instead of F/G? Besides I don't think they will match 300k at 63. You have to be close to 65 to comfortably beat 300k
E4 / T4 are roughly equal to 63 at msft, in terms of scope/responsibility. But yes, OP will be unlikely to get MSFT to match 300k TC at L63
I have two kids and wife works at Microsoft. I want to support family and not mind some pay cut. However I am worried if this recruiter will screw up over 50k if not negotiated well. Thanks for reply.
From interview performance it is easy to guess if a guy can make it or not to G/FB. Hiring manger told me this thing during dinner after getting drunk :)
I can show them the offfer letter but companies want me to keep it confidential.
Are these all offers in Seattle? Also, yoe?
FB Seattle, G MTV
G in MTV and FB, MSR in redmond
FYI, $250k in Redmond > $300k in MTV. Don't forget WA has no state tax, cheaper housing. No state tax is fucking huge as it scales with TC.
No harm in telling. They will give you a better offer then but it won't be close to fb google
There is a small chance they'll offer you 64 and will match. That's what happened to me when their 63 offer reached the max
Recent L63 you can reach $250k TC. I had AMZN offer. With G/F I'm guessing you can be close. The highest 63 on blind was $270k TC.
63 won't match to 300k

You won’t get 300 at 63 unless you have competing offers. Best to disclose them.
Even with competing offers 300k is tough at L63
Once he disclose will they ask for proof ? If it just verbal, how they will know that he is not bluffing??
