What happens when most of your team is Indian?
Hi all, Received an offer from Cruise for a senior technical writer role. Base: $119k Annual target bonus: 20% ($23,800) Equity: $77k I haven’t started to negotiate yet, but I was wondering if people had an idea of what the wiggle room looked like for negotiating. Or what range I should be looking at. Fwiw, Glassdoor puts a senior tech writer base salary around $126k. Current tc: 135k, 3.5 years exp
Wow that sounds like quite a good salary for such a role. Some software engineers make that much only.
If this is a senior role (L4 or L5) then you will get 30% bonus. What level is offered?
Sorry for the late reply! From what the recruiter told me, this is for level 3.
So it is not going to be a senior role
did you end up taking the offer?
What does a senior technical writer do if you don’t mind me asking
write technical docs
I work with engineering to get a lot of the knowledge that is floating around into process docs or white papers.
