Moving from Google MTV to a startup in London. Pay seems much lower in Europe. 5yoe Base: £100k Shares: £130k (vests over 4yrs + refreshes) This was their initial offer. Should I try to negotiate up? I suspect from the interviews that it's very close to the maximum they are willing to offer. My TC at Google L4 was $245k Base: $140,000 Bonus: $25,000 RSU: $80,000
I'm thinking about moving to London as well. Do you mind naming the startup ? I can PM you if you don't want to mention the name here.
I would say it's good for London. Although if its a startup, the stock options might actually be worth 0. Still, £100k base puts you in the top 5% of earners in the country (devs seem to lack that sort of perspective sometimes)
It's a pretty mature startup so i expect the options to pay off eventually. Do you know roughly what TC is for the high end of E4 at FAANG in London?
Great salary for London.How did you go about getting this job?Angelist? I’m actively looking for a job in London as well. Also did you get your visa ?
That is a good salary for London. Of your plan is to move to London, it cannot get any better. In Europe, Google Zurich pays a lot better. In FB London, E4 maximum TC is close to 120k GBP including stocks.
What's the max TC for E3 ?
I think, for E3, it is around 90K GBP. Not sure though as I joined as E4
For the context, new grads at fb in London get salary 50-60k, so your offer is really good
Here is TC from several companies in London (this is based on my and my friend offers). Amazon SDE2: £80-100k Facebook E4: £125k Google T4: £140K
I assume this is Improbable, right?
So would fb e6 would be paying 200k£ as TC? I believe e5 range would be 160k£

Are tech workers as rich as they think we are?
Take home will be 60% upto 150k - if paid standard way, housing will cost you for a London flat 1000-1500, maybe even more. It’s a good salary for over here. Do research on area of London you’d want to stay and its cost of living, if you are prepared to travel in the rent could be a fair bit less. You’d live well over here on that salary. It’s way above average.
Is it possible to find 3 bed flats for 2000 - 2500 near London? How far would the commute be to central London?
It’s not easy to answer but the money you’re talking you could find 3 bedrooms house/apartment, but I don’t know where your company would be located - example is which tube stop is it near as that determines how far you could look outside
