Current TC: 197K (base + cash + stock vesting/year) YOE: 6.5 Level: 62 Location: Seattle/Kirkland Competing offers: Apple and a couple startups TC offered: 140K/380K and sign on of 20K Have competing offers - how much do you think I can negotiate up and which components?
I have one offer coming for L4 in Seattle. I wouldn’t take it if it was that low. Mainly because I already make $250k here Why is base so low? And how much is T4 top offer?
Did Google recruiter ask for your level at mfst?
How was your interview?
Google was medium difficulty. FB was easy
For your reference , I joined as T4 2 months back in Kirkland. Previously l62 Msft(7yoe). My TC - 155k base, 400k equity and 50k signon. Had competing offer from Lyft, Uber and Amazon all for equivalent levels.
My initial offer was 140k base, 330k equity and 20k signon. Next offer they bumped up signon to 50k and equity to 400k. Finally (after I rejected because of low base) they moved the needle on the base. Hope this helps.
Thanks for the datapoint! Sign-on is the missing part here for me and I will work on it.

Location? Competing offer details? Without competing offer details based on your current TC, this looks like a solid offer (256 TC without signing).
Added some more details to original post
They don’t have current compensation data any more because of the new company wide policy. So current compensation is immaterial to their offer generation.
