I think this is on the higher side with the base.

Salesforce Codyishere OP Nov 6, 2019

Yeah, I’m trying to see if the RSUS are in the median range for Apple or if I can push on that end.

I think he can do more with rsus for ICT4 with VP approval. That’s over 4 years right? I got more rsus than that for 4. I got more sign on bonus as well. Do you have a competing offer? Max my recruiter said for RSUs was 200k. And max sign on was 40k. Though she also said max base for IC not ICT was 190k. I had a competing offer (TC 270) and was able to get higher because of that. She mentioned she had to go through VP. Also had offers from Facebook and Google though they weren’t as high.

Yes the RSUS are for 4 years . No competing offers, I was not actively looking for a change.

Push for more sign on and rsus. The former is easy to push for in my experience.

Salesforce Codyishere OP Nov 6, 2019

Thanks will push for more Sign on and RSUS.

Which org?

Push that sign on!

I personally know someone was hired as ICT4 got 400k RSU. They got lower base for 180k though. It was early 2019 and I don't think they need a VP approval for that. (ISS)

Salesforce Codyishere OP Nov 6, 2019

Thanks that was great my recruiter is being hard on RSUS but was ok to push the base which seemed to be unusual. I will try to push the RSUS

Yeah my recruiter could have been lying about VP approval and just went through the motions. I’m also not SWE so they’re different bands (and probably lower) @Cody my recruiter raised my base and wouldn’t bump up sign on lol. I requested an increase for sign on because I thought it would be easiest to move. Instead I got a base increase... 🤷‍♀️
