One time annual stock vesting is a scam
Recently accepted a new grad offer here and want to try and do very well since the recruiter really sold me on the opportunity for growth as opposed to my other offers. What does it take for the upper end ratings like GE or RE?
Either massive output (like truly insane), or performing like an E5 (scope, influence, direction, ownership, and communication). I wouldn’t aim for RE. People that generally get it are ones that don’t care about ratings, they just wanna build cool stuff. Only a small percentage of engineers get it, so don’t set yourself up for potential disappointment and frustration.
It’s that tough? I love software engineering and building cool stuff I got into cs way before I even heard about the TC. Isn’t a lot of that stuff team dependent?
Lol why wouldn't it be that tough
Offer details?
Not gonna mention signing as I’m pretty sure it’ll dox me since I got a better signing than a lot of return interns especially considering I was an external hire. Around 200k not including signing
Can you share the breakdown?
I got it as an E3 because I got lucky and was in a space that ended up being a major priority and was able to ship a couple really important and hard projects. The impact of them was much larger than anyone guessed it would be, and the complexity was probably E4, maybe E5 depending on how you frame it. It is usually given based on impact not necessarily performing at a higher level.
Focus on learning, sustainable, and having fun. The rest will follow. Re is not a good goal imho.
