Hi all, I got an offer from a GPU team Grade 4 (Senior Software Engineer) in UK. I have 4.5YoE in unrelated software field. They mentioned a new comp structure, do these numbers look good to you? Should I accept it? I am getting L5 Amazon promo in Q2, but I will not know my comp until July and I cannot decide if this offer will be better than the promo outcome :/. Base: £80K (~$100K) Stocks: $100K over 4 years With 40% of it to be vested at the end of first year First year TC: ~£112K (~$140K) (Given no stock price movements) Current TC: £85 #tech #ARM #arm #offer #Amazon
For a G4 is am excellent offer
Assuming stocks price stays the same…. it can go -60% also. Offer is nice considering your experience
Can you tell us what the vesting schedule is more fully? 40%, then 30-20-10? I'm curious what it is for new hires
It's 42% after first year then 7 quarterly vests 6% each then 4 quarters with 4% each. Even more complex than Amazon's schedule. Refreshers are granted yearly with same schedule
That’s a very good offer from ARM
Agree - £112K is excellent in Cambridge for 4.5y experience. Plenty of room for growth at G4 too.
