Just got an offer from Facebook as a data engineer in Menlo Park, CA. I have an overall a little bit less than 3 years working experience. Base is $120,000 Bonus 10% Equity $95,000 for 4 years Relocation assistance No sign on fees I don’t have any other offer to negotiate, but feel this offer is not that so good. Hope I can get some suggestions.
Base is in median. RSU and sign-on are on low end. You can still try negotiate with some other FB offer numbers you hear from friends / website.
Thanks for the suggestion, I know FB will provide the chance to refresh the equity after I abroad, I will try to negotiate to get some sign on fees.
Data engineer wise OK salary...Software engineer wise poor
You will starve
They would starve on foie gras and caviar? Sushi on a daily basis?
Funny brother, try to live with 120k in CA. Good luck eating your “foie gras”, ah
I didn't realize data engineers were paid so poorly.
Bonus isn’t negotiable. Best bet would be equity.
What the fuck my non-Big4 offer is more than that in a cheap area for basically the same position.
How come it's so low.Is this a normal for Software Engineer with 3 years experience @Facebook? Or data engineers paid lesser
As far as I know, in FB, data engineer is paid lower than software engineer, but I never thought it is too much lower.
DE’s are paid less at most tech companies
Data engineers are in a different band that SWE’s. Based on that, this looks about the low-mid band for a level 4. You can probably negotiate a little bit with some competitive offers.
What level? This seems like a salary for new grad.
I mean.. it's a data engineer position, not software.
Should be E4
