Pending Lyft offer...
Have a call tomorrow to discuss about it... what to expect, what to ask... and so on YOE: 10 Automation and Infra Development kind of role... in their QE group ... any pointers?
What level?
Sr level and above... donโt know the exact level... Does the offer depend on how my interview went and what level of compensation others in the team are at (or) is it based on YOE and so on ?
Once you have the level, let us know and Iโll help you negotiate for as much as you can get.
Verbal offer: L4 level 165 Base, 10000RSUs(about 400k) sign-on 10k
Ask for 1.5 million in stock.
For 10yoe? 1.2 is more reasonable. But yes, if the recruiter low balls you with something like 400k, ask 1.5 and settle on 1.2
(Did I do that right FLO?)
Start another discussion. Tag @Lyft. Title "TC expectation for 10yoe, automation & infra dev". Hopefully you will get the numbers from Lyft employees who joined recently.
Do we have to reveal our current compensation or not required ?
Nope. But recruiters use a neat trick these days - low balling. They will give you an ultra low number so you will immediately blurt out exactly how much it's lower than your current TC. (You are welcome recruiters - the ones who weren't using this trick until now ๐)
If we are asked current comp, how to answer the recruiter
