Got a full time SWE offer from Nvidia. Base: 160k RSUs: 130k over 4 years (25% each year) Sign on: 20k Location: Santa Clara HQ I am troubled as there is no annual bonus in there. I ‘ve heard both opinions that Nvidia doesn’t give annual bonuses and that if asked they might provide it. What do you think of the offer overall ? Is there any margin for raising either stocks or base ? If yes, Which one? YOE: just my masters degree. I just finished my masters and had only one internship with Nvidia (and one with AMD).
Need your yoe and level to determine whether or not it’s a good offer.
Fixed it
Amazing offer for ncg.
Amazing offer. Nvidia is so generous. Why still troubled? Nvidia doesn’t have bonus but provide a high base compared to other companies. Stock is a lot more than other companies would provide for ncg
With a YOE of 0, that’s an amazing offer.
This is the right answer, I doubt there are any other companies that will match or beat this offer for a fresher.
There are certainly companies that beat this. Stripe, databricks, figma, Netflix, palantir, any quant, heck — even Amazon new grad in sf is 200k+

Great offer
Of course it is good given you have no experience. Why you care about bonus? I joined at way less TC and my NW is 30mil. No bonus throughout the whole time. I came in for growth and not for peanuts bonus
My offer for Director of Operations last year was: Base: $220,000 RSUs: $500,000 over 4 years (25% each year) Sign On: $30,000 Location: Remote
At NVDA ?
I didn’t take the offer, stayed at the startup I was at.
Yoe? I say take it. With how ai is going, nvdia will be a good name for future job
