Hi, I have got an offer from Apple: Base: 170,000 Sign-on: 60,000 RSU: 165,000 Grade - ICT3 And the team sounds super cool. I also have an offer from Microsoft: Base: 170,000 Sign-on: 100,000 RSU: 225,000 Grade - Level 62 YOE - 9 years Both locations are in Bay area. I had already accepted the offer at apple when I got the MS offer, so i am not sure if I can go back and re-negotiate the offer with Apple, as my joining date is pretty soon. Looking at the numbers, Microsoft has an edge for the first 2 years. Then Apple starts picking up. How much are the typical yearly RSU refreshers for ICT3 at Apple ? In terms of future opportunities and career growth, which company will open more doors? Both jobs are in the embedded devices domain. I have also heard scary stories about Apple work culture (particularly for women) and that is also playing on my mind..! Any inputs would help. Thanks.
Dang that MSFT is off the charts for L62. A base of 170k for L62 is almost impossible! Funny, I was thinking my offer was one of the best lol If I may ask, what is your YoE?! Also one suggestion: Always add the location to the offers. Much easier to compare! Anyways, congrats 😀
That is probably the best MSFT L62 offer I have seen on Blind too. YoE pls?
Mine? Mine was everything the same except a base sal of 160k. Which I felt was outside the range for L62. My YoE is 2. Also mine was for WA state
Location and YOE??
Not worth reneging Apple for 15K diff
You can expect 80k rsu at Apple for ICT3 assuming you are a good performer. If you get promoted in 2-3 years you can make a lot more
I wouldn’t count on a promotion; it’s a bit of a joke at Apple.
How so
