Role is Software engineer?
AE
What's ae?
Enterprise?
Yes enterprise
Nice man, I’m an SDR selling cloud software in TX. Mind if I ping you for career advice?
Great offer, take it
Great offer ^
Nice offer. Stock vests 25/25/25/25% over 4 years? How does the 80k work?
After one year Depending upon performance I’m eligible for that award every September
That $80k stock award is if you get 200% rewards for the year, I don’t think that’s likely. The range for stock awards for L64 is $0-$80k, but the target of 100% rewards is $40k, the midpoint of the range.
That’s a solid offer for 9 YOE, I’d take it
How long between interview and verbal offer?
Less than 3 days
I did not realize sales made that much money
Sales can be the highest paying greatest job or the lowest paying worst job. I’ve experienced both.
Sales doesn’t require leetcode or even a degree. Some of the youngest high earners I know are in a non tech role like sales
Great offer. As others mentioned, annual stock seems high, but they did increase stock ranges this rewards period.
OP won’t get $80k per year stock. At 100% rating, will get the midpoint of $40k
Yep, you’re correct.
Yoe?
