I have two offers from Bloomberg and Facebook. I also finished interviewing with Pinterest. I did well in 3 round and medium/bad in one coding round so I'm not really expecting an offer. Bloomberg: Base 240 Yearly bonus 60 Sign on 25k Facebook: Base 168 RSU 300/4 years Sign on 75k Target bonus 10% Do you think I can get the signing bonus to 100k and RSU to 350? Let me know what you think Levels and Location: Bloomberg NYC and Fb MPK level E4 for Facebook and Bloomberg Senior SE I suppose since they only have two levels #offer #bloomberg #facebook #l4
Where are those based? What level?
answered in post
260 based at new grad is crazy.
sorry It was a mistake I mean 240 base - 60 bonus
240k base is still crazy for new grads
Meta
Bbg offer is stunning. Iâd go bbg if you care about nyc life, relaxed work, focus on hobbies. You can always go back to fb after 5-7 years when you stagnante at bbg
I care more about growth which seems very slow at bbg
then why ask at all
team?

The maximum you can get as a PhD new grad at FB is 170/330/75. The maximum E4 at FB is 170/400/75 but they only give it to external experienced hires. New grads can't go above 330.
a lot of levels.fyi contradicts this. I know someone who got 160/400/100 as a return offer.
levels.fyi is not 100% accurate since it has many experienced E4 hires, some include sign-on/4 And some include stock appreciation. 160/400/100 I don't believe this happened in 2021. I interned in 2021 and there was not such a number among all the interns I talked to.
This is low-ball for new Ph.D. in AI org, especially these days. You can easily push for 600K+ RSU and 100K joining. You will probably need another FAANG offer though.
Melano park vs NYC⊠really? How does this not provide a clear winner. To think that you would be so bold to think that youâll âimmediatelyâ stagnate at bbg. Wow. Jesus you can trade up in a year or two if money is that deep to you. But you know, have fun with living in California making loads of money. Iâm sure youâll be really happy, everyone sounds like they are having a ball over there.
My wife is in Sunnyvale so not really debating...
I think you need to get a new wifeâŠ
Why would you want to work for a company like Facebook after all the things that were disclosed in âthe Facebook papersâ ..that company has no morals or values whatsoever
Take FB, Bloomberg is legacy tech and not growing enough. You will have greater optionality with FB
I interned in the AI group and they are really doing top-notch work. not at all legacy
You will be able to move up faster in fb.
