Not enough time to negotiate new grad FB offer, will my future comp be lower than people who did?
So I'd be coming in as a new grad, and I'm wondering how my offer would affect my future comp at FB. I know that signing bonus doesn't make a difference because it's a one time thing. But for stock awards, are they solely based on performance or will they be proportional to the initial stock grant I received in my offer? I'm getting 150k stock and I've read of others negotiating up to 240k stock so that could be a pretty big difference if the stock awards are for ex 1/4 of the initial stock grant.
RSU refreshers are entirely dependent on your level and performance rating. 150k is standard. "Time" was probably not the limiting factor there -- there's a good chance you couldn't have gotten more even if you'd spent time negotiating.
By time I mean no time to get other offers. Wasn't in a situation where I could line up a bunch of interviews from different companies. Good to know though, thanks.
The real thing you're losing is upside. If the stock price doubles in the next couple years, your $150k grant will get you $300k. If you negotiated $240k, it would net you $480k.
Just fyi. Rsu 240k is return intern rockstar level. Very few new grad people can get it.
