8 years of experience Was interviewed for E5, but finally got E4. Base 75k GBP Stocks 40k USD per year (160k USD over 4 years) Bonus 10% Any thoughts? Especially compared to 350k TC in Bay area in other company?
E4 is low for 8yoe. What did you do before and where? TC is in the bands for E4
Non FANG companies, interviews were kinda ok.
Just curious, for the same living standard and assuming single male/female, will OP save more with that offer in London or 350TC in Bay area?
Good question!
Is this a SWE?
Yes
It looks a low ball, according to levels.fyi - maybe someone from FB London can add more data. But overall you need to push these numbers up
350 is for E5 I think. For E4, you would get around 250 in Bay area. You should be able to ask requiter to change your location to Bay area.
Very decent E4 offer in London. Particularly the stock. Unfortunately, TC in London is way lower than usa. The potential upside is there though. The company is growing a lot. I joined as E4 and was promoted to E5 in 1 year. The base of E5 starts at 100k. My total compensation doubled in 1 year.
Any sign on bonus?
About bonus is it 7.5k GBP per year or per 6 months?
My only thought is don’t compare against Bay Area TC unless you’re into comparing apples to salmons
Married, no kids. Where will I save more money with the same lifestyle?
