Currently have a G L5 TPM offer for Seattle and expecting MS Principal PM offer next week or so. G is pushing me to make a decision, like by tomorrow 9/10 Should I take G offer or wait for MS? G- L5 TC 312K: base 165k; equity 310k; Sign on 20k Annual bonus 15% MS Azure team Expecting offer for level 65 or 66 Currently L5 Amz TC 270k Yoe: 12 #google #microsoft
Microsoft annual salary at L65 will be 300k to 360k without joining bonus and stocks. Base 205k-230k Then you can negotiate additional joining bonus of 30k-50k (one time) And joining stocks 240k to 400k or may be 600k (one time) vesting in 4 years.
This is for a program role?
Accept G offer and then reneg if MS is worth it. Or delay G somehow.
Would that cause issues if I wanted to switch to G in future?
Yeah it might, but I mean, L65 role possibility, gotta do what’s best for you. It’s a shit and a great situation.
Just Wow! Congrats OP
Thank you
If your priority is company prestige, go to Google. If your priority is title, wait for Microsoft. think about your which makes your innerself happy. for me, I know company prestige will fade away soon. I would choose L65 Microsoft. in the meanwhile, accept Google and give them a starting date 2 months from now. if you reject later, you will be blacklisted for 1 year, nothing more.
Thanks. Helps to know the blacklist is only 1 year
What was your microsoft offer?
Wow, Amazon L5 to MSFT L65!
yeah this is absolutely insane lol. dumb ppl on blind see G and go bonkers without really understanding the magnitude of this!
Amazon L5 for 12 YOE seems too low. L65 for 12 YOE sounds about right
