Emergency alert!

Hi Blinders,

I got approved by HC for L3 and got matched with a team in Warsaw. I have no competing offers.

They made an initial offer as follows
Salary : 144k PLN
Bonus : 15%
Stock : 50k USD

The recruiter asked for my expectations to take it again to the compensation team.

Please can someone help me with the negotiation since I literally have no idea about CoL in Warsaw and bad at negotiating.

Thanks in Advance!

      Yes exactly. Pay is not the only thing for me RN. Is it easy to get internal transfer to some other good paying locations after an year or more in G?

    • Yes, internal transfer is possible but you would be fiercely competing with other employees for some hot locations like Mountain View and Switzerland. Also, you would loose the negotiation power while doing an internal transfer. Your base pay will only be adjusted to new location with no chance of negotiation.

    First blind post where non-Polish OP says Google Warszawa (instead of Warsaw). Kudos to you! :)

    I hope they will increase your offer but as a Polish man who spent here almost entire life I know it is going to be extremely difficult (as Poland is ultra low salary + high taxes country).
    I have 11.5 yoe and my salary is 60k $ (32.5k $ net) in tier-2/3 US company

    Warsaw cost of living = col of Mumbai + little more. Keep that in mind and negotiate.
    Rn its better to take a Poland offer than India offer due to refresher cuts in India.
    Ask for more stock but max they’ll do is like 70k. Base is already top end L3.
