Just wanted to share a comp data point with others since I've found posts from others to be useful. Got an L5 offer from Google as an ML engineer in Seattle. Currently working at FB as an E5 and didn't have any competing offers. Asked for... 210 base / 800 stock / 100 sign on = 441 TC Apparently this was way out if bounds, especially since it's Seattle, I had 0 competing offers, and I'm not a genius super star. Ended up with... 177 base / 710 stock / 50 sign on = 381 TC Yoe 6, current TC 335
380k in Seattle for 6 yoe is very good. You actually negotiated well or a little more genius than you think
Could you share more details on the interview process ?
once u hit 380k TC can you afford a home in Seattle finally?
people still r buying homes? dang
What was your final offer. Congrats OP. Any competing offers ?
Thank you good sir!
