**Situation** 1. Let’s say – Google has offered L5 and Facebook has offered E6. 2. Once the offers come, Facebook’s offer is 200K$ to 250K$ above Googles. **Question** 1. In spite of the large difference between offers potentially due to difference between levels, would Google still match Facebook’s offer?
No. Even if you get a top e5 offer, it's not easy to have Google match. No way Google matches Facebook's e6.
Interesting Thank you for confirming So , in that case , is there value in having competing offers ?
The value is that without it you get a mediocre offer from Google. With it you get matched if it's within Google's range. Otherwise it requires exceptions. With that, you may still get the match.
Very doubtful. Are you so badass that Google will compete at any cost?
Interesting I thought that google will compete hard with Facebook on any offers. Based on this threads , looks like my understanding is incorrect .
$250k difference? Wtf, that’s my current comp.
Lucky you

Is it hypothetical or happening?
This is hypothetical
Not sure which job ladder you're on but general wisdom seems to be that FB level and Google level are roughly equivalent. So it would make sense for a 6 offer from one to beat a 5 offer from the other right?
Yes I agree
Two years ago, google matched my l5 fb offer when I got a l4 goog offer. It was tough though because annual raise and bonus is low, due to being overpaid for the level.
That’s good. Congratulations. When using competing offers , did you - 1) tell google that you had a competing offer from Facebook ? Or 2) did you share facebooks competing offer numbers with google ? 3) what was tough point wrt doing this negotiation? 4) did you share facebooks level with google?

PM is irrelevant role and will die in next 2-3 years.
No. They will stay $100k under FB for this offer.
Got it So, hypothetically, Facebook at 600K , google comes at 300k Google will go till - 500 k ?
No way they will give you 500k for L5. 450 max
