Uber offer
Got an offer for Uber, currently at Twitter Senior 175k + 600k RSU Twitter 210k TC Did not negotiate with Twitter at all but I am a top performer and received large bonuses. Told manager I wanted to be earning about 300k but feels like such a large jump. I want to do things right this time around and negotiate and get what I deserve so I’m not constantly second guessing my comp. Uber at least values me properly?
About 5 years
How do I go about getting a competing offer from Twitter? I feel like it’s bad faith to out right say I have an offer from Uber. How do I prevent a scenario where they hear I have an offer and terminate me? Seems very risky. Twitter raises about 7% a year, with a 5% base bonus target. Some stock for high performers, my current TC includes a large recent stock bonus I received that almost doubled my equity comp
So you’re suggesting I resign without a job lined up, burn my bridge and hope they ask me and offer a counter offer? That seems reckless, if the Uber offer falls through I just lost a job I enjoy a lot. I know I’m being low balled but I also feel like I didn’t negotiate and wonder if It’s hopeless to negotiate now or if it’s possible to do in a safe, professional way.
What role? Which team?
Senior Engineer, see OP. Not going to say team not relevant I don’t think.
Geez. Uber offers have really decreased since the summer...had an offer for sde2 with similar equity, but 160k base. You should get more offers.
4 yr vesting?
What is the level you are being offered at UBER? 5a or 5b?
Uh Senior, don’t know what 5a or 5b are
Excellent offer I must say 600k RSU is not bad and by the time Uber goes public it will be incredible gain..how many years of work ex u have ?
Or value could go down like Snapchat. How can you know the future?
You join company with optimism. Besides I don't think RSUs as real compensation it's just cream on cup of milk. Real value what you are given as bonus + fixed income. Company can alps go bust immediately after hiring like Lehman bros but we like to be positive
