Trying to evaluate an offer that a friend of mine got for #msft #atlanta . Experience: Post-doc in stats/ML currently in top 5 engineering university (1 year). PhD in ECE before that. Position: Data Scientist II, L62 Team/location: #azure compute, Atlanta Type of hire: Industry hire Base: 135k Sign-on: 25k (paid over 2 installments) RSUs: 90k (4 year vesting - 25% end of year 1, then 6.25% every quarter) Relocation: 6k, after tax No competing offers. Is negotiation even possible? Any thoughts appreciated! #datascientist
That’s a good salary for Atlanta. You could negotiate the RSU. But you might need to act like you have competing offer.
How come a postdoc is industry hire?
Who knows, the recruiter said it's not a new grad hire.
have you accepted the offer?

What happens when most of your team is Indian?
Quite a standard offer I would say. He can push the RSU a bit though.
I thought the sign-on was also a bit low (especially given that it's paid over 2 installments). Is that standard for a non-intern, industry hire?
