Hi folks, I have a Google offer for an L5 SWE postion: Base 165k Bonus 15% (25k) Stocks 380k Sign on 20k TC 285k This sounds like a pretty average L5 offer, what do you think? Recruiter told me base was maxed out so I should be happy, but I have seen many TCs here and on levels.fyi with higher base. I told them I wouldn't take a pay cut. What is a good L5 offer (eg for someone close to L6)? Current TC 310k (L65), 4 yoe + PhD
What’s usual requirements to keep the sign on? Is there a certain amount of time tu have to stay?
I think usually a year
Watching this to check what other googlers think
U need to get a competing offer from FB or similar to push this L5 offer higher.
Waiting for a competing one from another big tech
Current level?
L65
Is it possible for you to interview with Facebook?
Push for 50k signon?
For L4, I got it upto 285K excluding signon (30). Definitely there is room for L5. Also why are you taking a paycut?
It’s L4 offer
For someone close to L6 good offer is 450-500. 285 with 165 base is ridiculous.
What are your chances of getting to L66 at MS? That’s when you can come to Google as L6

Below average RSUs, try to get at least 500k.
That's what I thought, thanks
