I am expecting a Google L6 EM offer. Wanted to know some details on refreshers and Target bonus 1. If I join on January/February 2022, will I be eligie for refreshers in 2023 cycle? 2. How much refreshers are usually given for L6 EM? 3. How much Target bonus is usually given for L6 EM? Location: MTV #tech #google #offer #refreshers
From what I understand for you be eligible for refreshers you how to have the year you joined plus one of the following year December. FYI this is what my recruiter told me (might miss quote) when I accepted my offer, don't work there yet
Can you elaborate
+1, can you please elaborate
TC and YOE?
1. No unless you join in December 2. 300k - 400k 3. 20% target most people got 25% or more What's your level and TC at Amazon
Oh? What's your logic for Dec?
And wow! 300k refreshers??
1. Yes, you'll get refreshers. 2. Not sure, guess between 150-200 (depends on rating) ? 3. Depends on rating, at meeting expectations 100% of target bonus.
Thanks, will these be prorated refreshers or normal ones?
Reading other posts I might have been wrong. Looks like you only get it in the second year of review. So you'll miss the refreshers although you'll get a review and a base increase (personal experience).
You won't get refreshers for 2023 unless joining by Dec. 13th 2021 the latest. Have confirmed it multiple times.
Wow that's bad, I can't really join on dec13 since I am yet to receive the offer and then go through h1b transfer etc. Do they not even give prorated refreshers?
No prorated refreshers unfortunately. I think managers have some discretion for high performers.
OP, I'm in the same boat. Use this December January cut off to negotiate TC. Weird rule
Were you able to negotiate your TC based on this?
You would be lucky if you get it negotiated. I tried but no success
Which team in Google ?. Core businesses might give more
It's Search org
Which ones are considered as core businesses?
1. Refreshers in 2023 December 2. 160-220K for CME. 3. 20-25% for CME.
OP - im in the same exact boat. Did you get numbers from Google? Also do you know if it’s remote?
Location?
