Facebook NY Offer (E3 New Grad): $115k base, $100k signing, $220k RSUs over 4 years, $10k relocation (Year 1 TC: $280k) Currently interning at Bloomberg and expecting to receive a full time return offer. Is there any way Bloomberg can come close to the year 1 TC being offered by FB? If anyone has any suggestions on how to get Bloomberg to match as best as possible that'd be great. Only considering these 2 for full-time because I want to be in NY and tired of interviewing lol. Pros of FB: Better name on resume I think?, faster career progression, more $$, slightly better perks/benefits, more fast paced/modern, more of a tech company than BB in my experience. Cons of FB: Not enthusiastic about products, questions about company's future trajectory (possible regulation/antitrust/etc.), bad public perception/constant negative news cycle/poor moral compass, poor WLB. Pros of Bloomberg: Awesome WLB, HQ in NY (hence nicer NY office), non-public company and hence steadily flies under the radar, TC is all cash. Cons of Bloomberg: Probably lot less $$ in Year 1, lots of legacy stuff and very not modern tech (though they seem to be trying to improve it a lot), no free breakfast/lunch/dinner like FB :( I want to strongly consider Bloomberg but the main hiccup is likely massive difference in TC. FB pros would indicate it is a no-brainer but I keep having some hesitation about accepting the offer. Probably just recency bias due to the massive recent negative press about the company? Definitely still leaning towards just taking FB simply to collect that year 1 TC though.
Once you see Bloomberg's offer you'll choose FB.
They would be comparable year 2 onwards; Bloomberg will offer $200k year 1.
That's an amazing new grad offer
Holy fuck, what an offer, is this a SWE role? I better work my ass off and get promoted
Wow they are hiring for new grads this time of year? I thought it started in Summer/Fall?
FB or Bloomberg? OP seems to have interned at FB cause only the top 10% of FB interns get $100k for their full time offer.
FB all the way. It’s near impossible to get into NY at E3 right now.
You’d be crazy to turn down a 100k sign-on
On the recency bias thing: do a 180 on that. FB savaged in press recently means a nice discount on the stock. You’ll get a larger # of shares for the fixed cash amount for your first grant and then when the market gets its head out of its ass and the price recovers, you’ll make that much more.
There is no comparison at all, it’s not even close ! Go FB
Pretty sure Bloomberg is 130 base with 10 Bonus for new grads, I expect max you can get out of them is 150
You seem to be pretty sure for something that is completely wrong. It's 142k base, 18k target, 10k relocation, 30k signing. Source: I had a 170k offer (without signing) but I didn't have a competing FB offer like OP's.
Yeah my info came from 3 years back, probably changed by now

Enraged that kids prefer KPop to Bollywood. Installed cams in their rooms.
You need to think 2 steps ahead. FB will open lots more doors for you. It’s no brainer.
