Returning to Microsoft after being laid off last year. Base: 196K Stock: 160K over 4 years Sign-on: 30K split over 2 years Redmond, WA
Is the 160k stock every year or /4?
This is so low! Microsoft really pays 🥜
160K is too low as stocks are at ATH & headed lower post July.
Base seems pretty good, stock may have some wiggle room as I know some 63s who got similar stock offers. Sign on seems low as I’ve seen 63s get 50k over two years, but to be fair that was when the market was much hotter. Either way congrats on the offer 😊.
Ya the recruiter cited the economy as driving the sign-on figure. They said the compensation team is very aware they have the upper hand and are sticking to their guns on cash
