Affirm offer L6 Sr Swe Base: 175 RSU: 200/3 + 150/2 (2 grants) Bonus: 0 Sign on: 0 Location: SF Looks like lowball? TC: 250 5 y.e.
My wife is at affirm. Their levels are inflated. Senior swe = L4. Not a bad offer for L4.
I have better offer from Uber for L4 though, than Affirm L6
That offer is right in the middle of the pay and equity bands. So there is room to push for higher in both.
Lowball. Ask for 200 base, 300/3 RSUs and 30 signing
@AmbKc914 did you get an offer like that recently?
No, but I've seen higher offers from people with less YOE in lower COL areas
Op any interview tips?
Usual interview, easy/medium LC
What can you share about the system design?
Middle of band. Should ask for more
Their titles are inflated and they use a 90 day rolling average to calculate RSU grant, make sure you calculate the correct TC using that
Levels fyi says that staff at Affirm is same as staff at Google. Why do you think that titles are inflated at Affirm?
All the Staff level employees I interviewed with had very low YOE and didn't seem very experienced. Also, scope and TC at Staff won't match up with Staff at Google

Didn't Amazon raise their base cap?
I don't expect them to increase my TC from 250K to 400K
Dig it. Looks like a good offer. Why are you leaving Amazon?
