Standard offer for BS students

Do you know what the max band for new grads are this year?

Oracle kerty Feb 13, 2019

Max band depends on 3 things: 1. Your college 2. Your competing offers 3. The desperation of backup candidates If top 10 college, competing offers from G/FB/MSFT, no better candidates, then offer can be as high as 140k, 5000 RSUs. Otherwise, what you get is what you get. There are tons of MS students from foreign countries who will accept your offer.

Your offer looks upward of 150K TC. Didn’t know oracle paid fairly competitively, especially to undergraduates. Nice

Oracle kerty Feb 13, 2019

Contrary to what you find on Blind, if you are a strong new grad, you have a very high chance of out-earning your peers at G/FB/MSFT while working at ORCL. The problem is that ORCL will not see the stock appreciation that G/FB did over the past 5 years which has led even mediocre E4 engineers to have ~350k TC. Of course, once the stock inevitably flattens out which is what's most likely going to happen over the next 5 years, ORCL becomes a very lucrative choice.

Is this offer at HQ Redwood City ?

Oracle Bayguy Feb 13, 2019

Looks a decent offer for BS but keep interviewing. Try FAANG

Which group ? I would consider joining oracle only if it’s OCI or core database group. Oracle in general does not appreciate talent . Your salary will stale for next 5-6 years . Rsu refreshers are very minimal (about 4-5k a year) and only if you are in top performer. Most of the people don’t get anything. If you are highly motivated at start of your career then it’s wrong place to join. The existing oldies and lethargic people are sufficient to demotivate any person. If you want to learn a lot then join any other firm without salary considerations. If you don’t want stressful work hours then it’s good place. Choice depends on you! Congratulations for your offer. If you plan to join Oracle, well good luck !

Good offer but do you have anything to compare with ? Asking feedback like this when you know that graduate offers are non-negotiable , is a waste of time

ViaSat Yumpers Jun 16, 2020

OP can I ask what you ended up doing and how your negotiation went?

Hey op, I saw you are at Expedia now, could you tell me why you chose EG over other offers like oracle?? I'm also in the same situation, deciding between
