      Thanks. That makes me feel a lot better. Honesty Iโ€™ve known people get way better offers than this and also related posts on Blind suggest the same. ๐Ÿค”

    AFAIK Signing can go up to 50k, stock up to 160k. Regardless thatโ€™s already at the high end for new grad, the standard offer is 110k, 15k signing, 70k stocks for L59(not returning intern)

      I tried negotiating more but was unsuccessful. The max Iโ€™ve seen people get this time is 150k stock and 50k signing.
