Facebook comp for IC4

Interviewing with Facebook. They said I'll likely come in as Data Engineer IC4. I have 5 YOE. I currently work at a contracting/consulting company in the Midwest making 130k + 10k yearly bonus. I'm happy with my job right now, but interviewing anyway. FB asked if I'd be willing to move to the Bay Area. What kind of comp should I ask from Facebook? I've checked out levels..fyi but they don't have comp for DEs..also, I want practical advice for moving from the Midwest with my salary. thanks!

check cost of living comparison online between your location and Bay area. You'll get some sense. Seems like at least 300k.

DE TC is the same as DS TC, so you can use that as a reference on levels. TC for IC4 can be anywhere from 180k~230k, although I think the offers are higher now.

I’m joining FB next week. The DE IC4 base is from 150-165k. 165k being the max cap at this level. The RSU can be anywhere from 150-240K vested over 4 years. Depends on your negg skills and competing offers. The signing bonus is 0-25k. So the overall package can go from 180-240k for IC4
