I was on talks with a recruiter at GitHub and was given upfront the salary for the position. I am wondering is it possible to negotiate it? Has someone done that. The recruiter was hesitant when I asked. Telling me I needed to have a good excuse to ask for more as they had a very standard package. It is for a staff position. Base: 188k Stock: 430K vested over 4 years Cash bonus 0-20% Stock bonus 0-67k It is definitely better than my current tc. But also feel compared to other places it is low. Considering staff engineer position. Current TC: π₯π₯ Yoe: 9
I posted this exact same question a few weeks back haha. Currently at the final offer for a SWE II position. I was told that you need competing offers or show that you are leaving behind RSUs.
Guess have to line up some offers. Lol.
So are you accepting the offer?
Is this in the US? Stock seems good. Salary is low for US.
Yes. US. Tier 3 location according to them.
They can go 10k higher. The stock grant is good though. Our refreshers are terrible, Iβm kind of jealous. Maybe I should quit and rejoin.
I am also applying for a staff-level position and got an identical offer. Base: 188k Stock: 430K vested over 4 years Cash bonus 0-20% Stock bonus 0-67k I was told it is based on location. I am in Eugene Oregon. Does anyone know if you can ask for a signing bonus at least as the base is just slightly lower than my current compensation?
From what I heard you have to give a good reason. Ideally another offer. You might be able considering base is lower than current. But not sure.
I just had 5 1/2 hours of interviews for a staff position, then did not get it. They do not give any feedback either. I really was disappointed as I felt I was perfect for the role. However, all interviewers were from Microsoft and they did mention there was one other internal candidate. I wonder if I was passed over in favor of a Microsoft employee?
How long was the process?
Pretty quick. 6 interviews, over two weeks. I was very disappointed I did not get the job.
Had a number of interview last one was skip level been two weeks since. No response followed up with recruiter but nothing.
