How is my offer? Yoe 15 Edit: the equity is front loaded. The 480 is 38% of the whole 4 years total equity which is the amount vesting in first year.
After months of interview and negotiations, Google gave me a final offer which is significantly lower than what I asked for. These are the final numbers Base - 215, 15 % target bonus RSU - 415 for 4 years( 33/33/22/11 split) I find it frustrating because this is even lower than what I have receive...Read more
YOE: 23 Current TC: $488k I interviewed for L7 position but was down leveled to L6. But even then it looks low for Sunnyvale. Some of my friends with less number of years (5-7 years) who work at Google make more than this. But looking at the news about layoffs, I am not sure if I should negotiate....Read more

Hello, I just received a google offer and wanted your feedback. This is for L4, 3 YOE. Equity is 33% of total ($210k). Thank you.
Just wanted to tell you how Google offers work. After the team match, you receive the offer and can then negotiate. If you receive the offer, moving back to team match is hard to impossible. be careful who you match with. TC 250k
Low balled for GA? Google Offer: Equity 110k and sign on 15k for 170k first year but with relocation. At Intel: TC includes RSU currently 75K.
Offer is 250/700/50 (base/rsu/sign on). They’re refusing to go any higher. Front loaded vesting and refreshers puts the average TC for 4 years at about 550k. Seems on the low end, but still better than what I currently make and is a level up. So I’m leaning towards taking it anyways. Current TC at ...Read more
