FRL E5 HW offer evaluation
Just got an E5 offer for a HW position at FRL. It seems low to me. Curious to what the Blind community thinks. level: E5 Location: Menlo Park Base: 185k RSU: 240k/ 4 years Sign-on: 0 TC: 245k Currently: ICT4@Apple TC: 350k after stock appreciation, 240k original Am I just spoiled by Apple stock appreciation, or does this seem too low for E5? Edit, since people are asking: Area: Design (system integration) YOE: 10 total, 4@Apple Edit 2: Here are the post-negotiation numbers: Base: 205k RSU: 380k Sign-on: 60k TC: 360k Is there room to push more? Edit3: Apparently FB is very receptive to negotiation. Final numbers: Base: 205k RSU: 425k Sign-on: 80k TC: 390k Stay or jump?
Which area? Design, DV?
Design, updated the post
What kind of design?
Yoe?
10, updated the post
Looks too low
Base is decent but stocks are low. Ask for $300k to $350k RSU
Was the 10 years at apple? Also is it analog or digital design?
Seems low. I would pass.
Where the 15% bonus?? Add another 27k
Agreed
Should be close to $450K assuming it’s architecture or design. Ask for a sign on of $100K/yr over 2 years. RSU should be 400K, base ~ 220K. You gotta run your home, not live on the pavement!
Not true buddy @Hyper
You will not get 220K base at E5. The plus 3 sigma is 215K for that... E5 to E6 is a big step and they can't out you at highest end of the band. RSU 400K may be do-able but that is the outermost limit. Mind this is for a non-SWE
Insulting tbh especially given your current TC
Too low
