I am about to get a offer of Principal software engineer at Akamai in their Cambridge office. What is the base, bonus, rsu and refresher I should expect or I should negotiate for?
What’s your other offers? What’s your best alternative? That’s how negotiation works.
The other offer is of a startup and that is going to be less of course . They have stock options though.
Fine. “I could do a startup. It offers a lot of fulfillment. Or I could work with you lot and have great healthcare and support my family. $x makes that a straightforward decision for me.”
~250TC
What is the breakdown of the total comp
Depends on ur YOE too, in my experience
