Folks who joined Apple as new grad PhDs
What was your initial TC in [base/4-yr RSU/perf bonus] format? My initial TC: ~200k [155k/105k/13%] Edit: Thanks for the wonderful insights, blind. Y’all will get me fired one day.
Oof, I was a phd intern @ $108 base pay
Was offered 200K TC 5 years ago
Interesting, did you have any work experience before joining? And was your PhD in a relevant field?
I started at msft 4 years ago post PhD with a TC of $152k without any competing offers.
Wow this is really low. I made this much with my first job and only an undergrad. What gives?
Not sure if you are serious or trolling with all the high TC posts on blind these days
Ya crazy low. I was a high school drop out drug addict prostitute and made 180k base at Apple
Dude this is low. Masters are getting more. Go back and renegotiate
Is it even possible to renegotiate?
Everything is possible before you join. If you have a manager tell them that you talked to your friends and found that your compensation is very low. Strategy #2: go get a competing FANG offer and use that to beat them over the head with.
These numbers are super low... undergrads are getting 220K TC at G and FB and I've heard of 300K PhD offers at both
Your TC is definitely low for a 4. Problem is the RSUs.
Only 155k for a phd?
Is 155k base low for new grad phds at apple?
My friend with masters has 160 base. New grad.
