Apple offered ~240k TC Google Offered - 347k Current TC - 320k I gave them the numbers. Recruiter said it’s going to be hard to match the Google’s number. Is it possible for Apple to match the number? What should I expect? I prefer #apple over #google. That’s why I am trying to understand how can I make this work without being low balled? Any comments/suggestions? Update: They scheduled another interview and cancelled it. Still waiting to hear after providing them competitive offer. Apple couldn’t match, i end up rejecting the offer. YOE - 10 BAY area #tech
Yeah Apple can, it’s up to the HM. Sounds like an ICT4 role.
They lowballed to ICT3 but then she said- offered TC is ICT4. Offered letter didn’t say “sr.” Position. She lied 🤥?
Yeah. They lowballed me too. Apple recruiters suck so I turned them down.
Can apple match - yes. Will apple match - depends on the HM.
How do I know what HM decided ?
Recruiter will tell you. If they ghost you, it means no. If they come back with the same or better number, it means yes.
Can I ask you about the SRE interview having one come up and its my first interview with a faang
Apple can match, but most likely not
Ouch
The HM can hire someone else and an additional new grad to match your Google offer. 🤷♂️
Good luck with that 😂😂
Is the TC with or without sign on? Seems low if it is with
With
Seems super lowball then for ICT4
Honestly I would just go for Google just by the simple fact that Apple doesn't value you. Would you really want to join a team where the HM doesn't think you're that valuable?
Still negotiating, too early to conclude
why Apple? For SRE roles Google is better. better tools and infra make your life much easier. Also Google has overtime pay for SRE. of course you should be ready for no promotion and meager raises for next 5 years.
No promotion and raises suck that’s why Apple
I was told by recruiter apple with go toe to toe with fang offers, so you can definitely make them match
Idk why recruiter said they can’t match but she will look into it? How long does it take them to get back?
You have to be ready to walk away, that’s what I told them. Got numbers in 2 days
