I recently went through a loop with Argo, and it went very well. I was given an offer the next business day. The details w/ slightly rounded numbers: SDE II 185k base 100k/yr RSUs @ their inflated 20B valuation 15% bonus target Current TC: 180k as SDE 1; on promotion path (not with PNC) 3 YoE #tech #argoai #offers
For medium CoL it's not bad. I'd push for 120k if possible but honestly it's a solid offer imo.
How many RSUs does that equate to over 4 years?
Guessing 3600, please confirm
Lol.. $20B valuation is never going to happen. I’d discount it to $5B given the tech carnage that we are seeing
Don’t be so sure… when self driving vehicles are ACTUALLY driving around making money, it’s a totally different ballgame.
That’s a long way down the road.. not happening anytime soon. These companies haven’t lived up to the hype.. and as a result the valuations will take a massive haircut in the public markets
You were at PNC. So is it Cleveland or Pittsburgh?
Ohio isn't real and you can't convince that it exists. On the off chance that it does exist, we should look into eliminating it.
Argo AI… cmu grad then?
Good for Pittsburgh for the base + bonus. Equity is a mystery, probably never 20B. Or never IPO. Who knows
I’m in a similar position I just got a call today that they want to make me an offer but were asking what are my salary expectations. I said I’m not clear at this point and I need a few days to evaluate. The recruiter said that the company is valued currently at $20B. But I think that is a joke.
In the case you didn't already accept it, I recently got an offer for SWEII, $200k base and $20k bonus, same RSUs. You can probably negotiate higher base and a small bonus.
Did you have multiple offers? Still haven’t accepted
no only had this offer, but my previous compensation gave me good negotiating power
Ok but could be higher. Is this Remote?
No real guidance rn. Remote but they have office space in my city
Location?
