Was downgraded from l5 to l4, also comp for NYC was too low ~140 base. YOE: 8 Have couple of much better offers ~300k TC in Bay area. Fells stupid to reject google.
Wow that’s very low. How many yoe?
sounds like they didn’t want you that bad unfortunately
If other offers are 300k tc... Why do you feel stupid to reject Google?
140 is base. What's the TC?
What other companies are your offers from?
That's an intern's salary, of course you should have rejected it
I would try to negotiate high stocks like 600k/4 to match TCs with other companies. With such low base once you come here increases will be high, as long as you don't do too terribly you can expect 40-50k raise(including bonus, equity, base increase) for each of the first couple years since your base/bonus is low. Vesting will be monthly anyways so not like you're missing out on cash flow or anything.
Did they say why they didn’t at least match the other offers?
I think as it was a downgrade for me as well, I didn't push too much on it, checked if extra interview would fix that but they said no.
money talks.
