Looks pretty good, already near the higher end of band

Ok. Thank you. How do rsu refreshers look like at Fb? Let's say for someone who meets expectations?

In general it is a 50-60k grant if you meet, vesting over four years, assuming e4

For 12 yoe, this is definitely low. I would not accept anything below E5. As for justification why this is the case - new grads sometimes get promoted to E4 in 6 months experience at Facebook

LinkedIn guiw22 OP Dec 3, 2018

Yes, I see your point. But without any competing offers I am getting the "Setting you up for success" bs.. Thanks anyways.

I'm an E5 with 8yoe. I would not accept E4 with 12yoe

This is definitely near the highest end of band for E4. Are you currently located in the US? Facebook doesn’t usually extend E4 offers for people with more than 8 YoE afaik.

LinkedIn guiw22 OP Dec 3, 2018

Interesting point. yes I will be relocating to the US from elsewhere. That explains... Thanks.

If you are relocating from India , it's quite good.

Have similar experience but in London. It sounds like Facebook doesn’t recognise my experience. Even having Google offer doesn’t help.

You didn't do well enough to get E5 offer. It's the max for E4 offer.

Current title and TC? I guess you aren't with LinkedIn anymore?

I think this looks super good

Facebook YoYoMammal Dec 3, 2018

Sign on is great, but jeez man you should definitely be E5. Path to promo might be easier for you with your experience, though. Have you asked why you didn’t get an E5? Maybe that’s negotiable?

I got the same with less signing bonus, 2 yoe

Microsoft Wiiiiii Dec 3, 2018

It’s max...
