I am expecting offer from microsoft next week (got confirmation from recruiter). How should i present my expected salary? Should i just tell them my expected base salary or TC or split it as base + rsu over 4 years? Its been long time since i negotiated salary, so excuse me if it is a naive question TC: 135k
Did you attend hiring event?
I can't speak to Microsoft specifically, but I generally tell recruiters the ballpark TC I'm looking for after they've given me the range they have. After we've agreed that the top line number is acceptable, then I start negotiating the various components of the TC.
Yoe?
Do you have competing offers?
