Too low to maintain a similar lifestyle with your current pay
Any tesla employees here who could comment? Chances of negotiation etc?
You should be okay with your equity shrinking significantly.
Stay where you are
Risky. Horizontal move in TC with high probability that TSLA gets a huge correction which would lower your TC considerably. Only do it if you're really passionate about tesla and their mission. Could end up with lower TC and bad WLB
For the same living standards 150k in Austin would be like 250k in the Bay Area (if not more), equity looks upto par for similar yoe at Tesla but base is low, try negotiating.
Lol no. Austin is not that cheap as you think. 150 I Austin is maybe, at most, 200 in Fremont. Also, Fremont is not bay.
Iâve lived in Austin for an year, no state tax and Rent is fairly affordable anywhere, have lived in Fremont and San Jose for an year each and have saved nothing honestly, TC 100k.
Your current package is good in Austin. you can stay in Austin and work from there for Tesla. Any way by next year Tesla will be growing in Austin
Ya but recruiter says move is necessary to fremont. Also said Austin package is lower, if at all she allows austin for a couple months. They want thr move done immediately so that's kind of strange. In this situation
Are you planning to live in Fremont or another Bay Area location? I would only take the offer above if I could stay in Austin, you are taking a pay cut and moving to a way higher COL location? Also consider Tesla practically has no performance bonuses for program managers You should be able to negotiate it, even then you need about 50% increase from your offer and not the 15-20% the recruiter would initially counter with
I don't have a job now, this is my only option. I am asking the recruiter for austin but she d down grade my pay she said
You are lucky to get this offer then. Everyone on here overinflated their TC because of the stock market. Reminds me of 2000 right before the crash and mass layoffs hurt everyone except for the golden children of the companies they were at.
I think overall TC is good. The base is in the top band of P3 (Senior). It may seem low but Stocks are pretty good in my opinion. So overall it makes sense. I donât think they will raise the level to P4 that easily- I havenât seen any staff recruits directly in any profile in last 4 years. But looking at your experience I think you will be promoted soon to Staff level.
P4 on lower/mean of band are more common, we hardly recruit people and bring them at the high end of the band
I hope I do well to be promoted. A little freaked out by all.comments on blind already. Cab you guys focus on good things about tesla? Benefits? Etc
Yoe?
