Current TC: 166k in Oregon Yoe: 8 Apple: Level ICT4 Sunnyvale, CA Joining TC: 185 + 350 (over 4 years) + 40 (first year). Microsoft: Level 63 Redmond, WA Joining TC: 165 + 200 (over 4 years) + 50k (first year) Its pretty clear for the first year. I am not sure how the offers compare 2nd year onwards based on rsu refreshers and bonuses. Poll is for TC 2nd year onwards.
Apple. No contest!
How is this even a question? 166k to more than 300k! Congrats!
Microsoft stock refresh is 15k. I think L65 first level principal get 35k. L66 is 70k. L66 is usually skip level manager who can manage 60+. I don’t know about Apple but I think FB and G give stock similar to L66 at Microsoft for their seniors. All the engineers at Microsoft leetcode in Redmond except 10+ yoe folks who are at principal level or close to it. They are 45+ years old and lost energy to leetcode. But others have moved out. All of the senior friends of mine are staying after failing G for twice but the rest moved already. Seattle area used to be filled with ex Amazonians but nowadays ex Microsoftees. Amazonians got unexpected compensation hike so more are staying. Microsoft stock boosted as well but for most it was simply from 15k to 30-40k at best.
Solid offer. Don’t forget to factor in the relocation cash too.
