I got an offer from FB at E5. I'm contemplating of accepting the offer, but I don't want to join FB any time soon since I'm in the middle of a project. How long can I postpone the start date? Can I push it to next year? Btw, TC = 190K base, 550K RSU, 50K sign on bonus
Computer graphics, VR.
Wouldn’t recommend delaying: the stock is soaring. Also, G can kill you project anytime and waste your time&effort. Why worry so much about finishing the project? Btw, BA or Seattle?
G@Seattle. The project I'm working on is interesting, I started it on my own so I want to finish it before I leave. I don't worry much if the project gets cancelled. There are many other things that need my attention, my current project is an excuse to not look at them.
Congrats! Years of exp please?
And current level at G
4 years of experience + PhD. L5.
If you are L5, Google might be already paying you so much. I think you can nego better.
Great offer. You can push RSU to $600k with your experience
How many leetcode
I suspect you can push it to any time within 12 months of offer receipt. Keep in mind RSUs are calculated based on the share price for a period before your start date, not offer receipt. I know people who have delayed in similar situations. Ask your recruiter. (After 12 months you likely have to re-interview.)
I'm hired as a specialist i.e. a team has been matched with my skills. Would that make any difference?
Maybe. Ask your recruiter.
