Does Google match Uber
Does Google match Uber's TC? I hear conflicting stories about Google fully matching, discounting Uber's stock, and just plain not matching. Current TC: 175 YoE: 3
Discounting IS matching. Your pre-IPO stock has zero liquidation value.
You know the best strategy? Negotiate hard with Google. Push uber to do the best they can do citing Google. Decline google and join uber. If the ipo doesn’t work out take Google later as the offer is valid for Upto an year. But if uber goes up up at ipo you get moolah!
Yeah, but my google offer is expiring in 3 months. Should I renew it? Actually the ipo price matters much less than 6 months later, the timing is hard to play with.
This strategy works better for someone interviewing now. If you are already in uber for an year, only makes sense to go to Google if they match or beat your current TC dollar for dollar. That way you get to wet in the IPO a bit, and get an assured return for the unvested component.
Pre-ipo companies are discounted by up to 80 percent.
No. Most companies match only 70% of Uber or other pre IPO companies. What you should ask the Uber recruiter is the fair market value of the Uber share. Google would come close to that.
no, preipo companies will be discounted
Got it, do you know the other way around? Does Uber try to match Google?
Yes, who will not match google?
