Can the competing offers increase my total compensation at Google a lot more than negotiation without them? Which companies would you recommend to offer compensation that can be competing? I want Google but ofc with a nice offer. Is it worth to recruit to some other places?
Unless it's a level up
Yes.
Google does not negotiate if you don't have competing offers.
They have a set of companies they’ll match (think FANG), else with other offers they’ll match some percentage lower (10%), else they’ll come in a little lower than their median for which they level you at
By FANG you mean Amazon or Apple?
What about Uber, Lyft, Airbnb? I was told they fight most aggressively with FB offers. Less so with others.
Does google recruiter ask for copy of other company's offer ?
I gave my expectations of FB offer and they responded with higher TC. FB wouldn’t budge when I tried negotiating but then beat Google’s offer after I told them what it was.
I have similar experience. Couldn't get FB to really budge until presented Google offer.
In my case Google came up with 50k less TC than FB offer. Maybe because I had L5 comp and Google down leveled me to L4.
