  • What level is the offer for? Senior Associate, Principal Associate or Master/Manager level? Annual raises are 2-3% with a strong (average) rating could be up to like 5% with the highest rating. Promotion raise depends on where you are on the pay band for your level but is usually around 10-12%. Bonus for strong rating is like 5-6k for SA and 9k for PA and I’d guess around 13-15k for master/manager. Culture and work varies by org and team. For C1 the orgs with the biggest budget and some of the more interesting work IMO are in the Card division but I don’t think they have teams in Plano I’m not entirely sure what teams sit in Plano for SWE. Growth opportunities are going to be dependent on the team and your management. Your relationship with your manager and skip level will play a big role in your growth at C1. Hope that helps and congrats on the offer.

    I'm a Platform Engineer in the Plano campus.
    It is a pretty tight knit community. We are pretty separate from Card, so we can develop and innovate separate from their red tape, but our good ideas get adopted by the rest of the company - this let's us fail fast and develop cool stuff.

  • How many years of experience do you have? You can probably negotiate that up 5-10k if you have >2 years of experience.

    The campus is beautiful. Good food in the cafeterias. People are nice in general. Most managers encourage joining employee interest groups like Hispanics in tech or women in tech or lgbt in tech. As far as negatives, it seems like a lot of teams are hiring contractors though which can negatively impact morale.

    Workwise, the teams are mostly focused on their “Financial Services” org which is all the auto loans related products. There are definitely some interesting sectors within that space.

    Bonus depends on your level and is based on your performance in relation to your peers.
