For those who have successfully negotiated offer with G, what tactics did you use, and which ones are most effective?
currently have an L4 offer 255k in hand, including sign on. Expecting another offer incoming from a smaller company (one of Square/ Uber/ Lyft)
How did you play your cards in your situation which made it work?
How shall I play my card?
TC: I am leaving 200k on the table if I donโt get this right, due to Oracleโs annual vesting schedule. I am not staying due to shits happening (you all heard of by this point)
Yoe: more than 3, less than 8

You may get L5 equivalent if you have 5 yoe and then we are talking about 200k gap in first year TC, what tactic you think will work?
Also I am the kind of person that will die if I donโt write distributed systems code
And the other company, though likely offering much higher numbers, isnโt writing paxos which I need to intake on daily basis to stay sane
distributed systems
which made it a must that I need to work for G
other offers arenโt really writing paxos
as for shits happening at Oracle, if you are on Blind youโve already heard plenty. Those are kinda true.
TK just threw some ridiculous jobs at me during team matching. I can NEVER forget what he did. Those arenโt SWE jobs but he gave them a SWE title, and expect me to do @&$/ work. I said no and went with another nicer team.
Yes whatever you are complaining about GCP seems true, at least from my team matching experience. I canโt believe they actually did something like that. Such insulting to Googleโs reputation tbh
