Hi Blinders, Need your opinions on the below offers please. Also, I'm not in Adobe. Google (Interviewed for L5, down leveled to L4): Base: 40L (including employer's PF) RSU: USD 148,000 (front loaded vesting: 33, 33, 22, 11) Signon: 7L Microsoft (L63): Base: 50L (including employer's PF) RSU: USD 125,000 (standard 25% vesting) Signon: 12L (first month) + 5L (13th month) I have given Microsoft's offer numbers to google and they said this is the best they can do for L4. On the face of it, the MS offer is better. However, I want to consider other things such as average refresher @ google is much better than MS (~$30K for CME vs ~$15K for same rating in MS), also the perf bonus can be 15% for CME in Google and I've heard that MS is generally conservative in bonus payouts. Also, how difficult is the promotion to L5 in google vs L64 in MS. Current TC: 45L fixed + $30K stock/year YoE: 9 #microsoft #google #offer #tc #bangalore #india #offercomparison
Google disrespecting you
They are known to. Externally getting a good levelling for your YoE is a lot of luck unless you are coming from a top rated Faang which is not amazon.
^Very true media.net. Throughout my job search for the last 4-5 months, I've received several down-leveled offers. Very frustrating. It's seems just very difficult to prove the level in interviews. It seems the companies expect all your interviews to be flawless to consider for the level you interviewed for.
Dm for LinkedIn
Already have friends working at LinkedIn and got my resume referred few months back as well as applied over LinkedIn multiple times. They never call back.
What about other factors like team, work, wlb etc? If these are good at MSFT, it's not a bad option. As others day you can always try L5 6 months later.
No its one year. Once you get to the offer stage and reject its one year. If you had rejected before TM its 6 months.
Okay. That's because this rejected offer holds valid for one year?
Thanks people. I have decided to accept the Microsoft offer.

Asians - what are your thoughts on asian female white male ?
The refreshers are more than 30k for CME in Google for L4 mate. But 63 is close to principal and for your YoE even career growth is imp.
Right. However, my aims is to spend next 8-10 years in the organization, so L4 right now might not matter that much because L5 promotion will come in 2-3 years.
63 to 65 can easily take 4-5 years. It's not that close to principal.
