Got a software engineer offer from scale in gen ai. Current tc: 380k but at a company that is not doing well and lots of leadership changes and coasting (260k base). This year is good but next year don't know as refreshers need to happen. Been at this company for 6 years. Scale offer: 210k base, 75k options over 4 years. (They are raising new round according to TechCrunch at 13b val) What is the wlb like for engineering, seems like for ops it’s bad #engineering #software #swe #scaleai #offer #scale #ai
$75k options seems like nothing. Unless it’s 75k shares, then you need more info to help understand value.
WLB is honestly normal. It’s shit for Ops that’s true. DM me if you want more insight.
Thank you dmed!
75K options (because that would be worth $750K over 4 years) or $75K worth of options ?
Feel free to DM me. Is this offer for L5?
What strike price did they offer you?
How long after onsite did you hear the decision?
2 days i think
Did you get the offer at the same time as the decision?
Can I DM you? I also got an offer and I’m deciding
Sure
