HELP😂😂 so, I got a tpm role at Argo AI I want to move to a product facing role but some folks said tpms will be a good stepping stone. Should I take it? Google product manager interview went okay, haven’t heard back yet. Facebook reality labs TPM role is scheduled in 2 weeks but Argo is really pushing to accept. TPM 2 175k base 350k rsu over 4 years (pre-IPO) 28k bonus Eligible for prorated bonus later this year. TC - ~290k (cons - no Stock awards for 2.5 years. Early morning meetings) Current tc as qcom sr.engineer 240k (150+75+15 + long hours + exhaustingly fast paced + monotonous development) #product #productmanager #tpm #pm #program #engineering #tech #careerswitch @argo @argoai @meta @google
Take Argo knowing that the RSU is paper money but renege for Google if they come through. Negotiate Argo AI offer though- illiquid stocks don't count.
Thank you! Should I ask for 400 rsu over 4yr?
Not sure what the range should be, I'd check Levels.fyi to verify what is possible.
Rsu from argo would be too little, given 20b valuation
They updated to 430k What do you think?
Effectively you need to take at least 50% off, so you can evaluate yourself :)
What did you decide op?
G G Google
Argo ai increased to 440k rsu. But didn’t like the job description. Also had a team match with google, so rejected Argo. Waiting on final numbers from google.
Thanks! I’m in a similar position. Can I DM you?
Sure
YOE ? Location ?
6 in engineering, 0 in product
Lol you are leaving Google for argot
Update - I got google Rejected Argo 😂😂😂 Thanks everyone! Hugely appreciate the votes, comments and dms!
How did you get the interviews without any PM experience? I've also been trying to switch from eng -> pm, but not getting any bites.
Networked heavily.
