Base: 210k Stock: 340k over 4 years Sign-on bonus: 100k They say it’s the highest they can go without exorbitant approvals. TC: 358 YOE: 6
Its not great. from second year onwards you salary would be 295K which i feel is less for principal.
210x1.2 + 85 == 337k + whatever vests from refresher on y2
Maybe at Apple, but At Microsoft OP is making top fucking dollar. And only 6YOE …. I have 5 YOE and I’m making 145k fuck me.
Principal L65 at 6 yoe is great.
You also have perf bonus 20-40%.
It's actually 0-40%
You only have 6 years of experience and you are getting principal? Little odd but possible for sure. It's a good number considering your experience. Take it. Hope you can compete and thrive after joining.
Basically a pay cut after first year?
Given your TC is already 358, why do this? The new TC is 210+340/4+some bonus+sign-on portion = similar
Salesforce is firing.. So better move on now than when being forced
L65 is still senior software at msft not principal
Wow nice. Sign on bonus is for 1 year? I would just say yes for sign on . How much yoe do u have
