Stripe Offer

I just received an offer from Stripe for a non-tech role, and the base pay offer seemed ridiculous to me at an hourly rate that would amount to only $63,800 per year. Any idea why some roles might be hourly? I am currently in a salaried position with TC nearly $150,000. Hourly was not at all expected and I really thought Id be working with a offer competitive with my current role...

Yeah, that’s absurd. That’s all I have to say.

Tell HR to shove it. No need to think about it further

Computers tell me that I’m wrong all the time despite my sincere efforts to be correct. You don’t get to be blissfully yet aggressively wrong. Your lack of shame offends me! Here take some of my shame!

What non-tech role?

Amazon vPGn84 OP Oct 22, 2019

Underwriting Risk Analyst. Non tech but SQL needed. Sucks because I was excited about the role and company.

Pretty sure we pay our underwriters more.

Stripe offers generally are pretty low. Don’t know why a lot of people are so excited about that company.

Is that really true? How recent is your info?

Stripe BlLL GATES Oct 22, 2019

This is not true for tech roles at least.

Wow that was a royal waste of time. Perhaps they don’t value your role and related roles much.

Was this for a full-time or contract/interim???

Amazon vPGn84 OP Oct 22, 2019

Full time, normal role. I was pretty shocked. This feedback is helpful, I’m clearly not crazy haha
