Have a SDE interview in couple of weeks. Looking for guidance on total comp expectations. Role is based in NY. Is 250k + 225k (Base + Bonus) fair expectations for 9 YOE Senior Software Engineer with Bachelor's and Master's in Computer Science ? Also is sign on bonus common for experienced hire ? Correct TC: $270k YOE : 9
Just curious, which company are you in right now?
270k is pretty high in NY.
Huh
Phone screen or onsite?
I know new grads who are making around 260 base as SDE. Sign on bonus was ~60-80. At 9 yoe you should be way over, I can’t reliably estimate a number though
260k base? Please name a company. My new grad comp is 285k but less than half of that is base. Nowhere pays 260k
New grad comp at Citadel can be 200k base/100k sign on/100k bonus. HRT can be 175/75/125
Expect 400 -500k tc
Thank you for your responses. Anyone currently at #citadel are able to verify ?
Top** band new grad TC is 350-400. You should have no problem getting above that with 9 yoe if you're solid
Both base and bonus are ridiculous high
Citadel is one of those places where new grads make a ton and industry hires don’t make a ton more percentage wise. Unless coming in with some super desired specialty. I think this is main difference between hf and fang. So in op case I expect 200k base and maybe up to 500k tc comprised of bonus incentives. But base can’t go much higher
I seriously doubt op can get past 350k Citadel offer, unless he has strong competing offers
@bloomberg you have no idea what you're talking about
@rainwater and @fire - thank you for your inputs. Have you had input from people working at #citadel ? What beats me is, a new grad hitting 300 easily in year 1 whereas a much more seasoned Developer struggling to hit 500 without any difficulty. Do you think a fresh grad who starts at 300 ends up at 500 if he/she continued to stay on for 6-7 years at Citadel ?
Case by case op. Do you know how crazy the turnover rate is at Citadel? They want every each $ out of you, you have to survive first.
According to LinkedIn premium insights, average tenure at citadel is around 4 years. Bloomerg is 7 years, Google is 4.5, Facebook is 2.8, amazon is 3.4.
