      I really think it’s a great offer. But on the other hand you also have a great edge with that title. From my experience staff is at least 8+ YoE in automotive.

      Thanks my thought and mindset with going for it. The title is a big jump but got a lot to prove. Hopefully the jump in salary comes by quick with my efforts here

    Lol. Which 4 YoE ME is making MILLIONS at Tesla? They pay too little. I know the stock jumped last year. But still how can anybody make millions?

      People get paid so little for California location that they cannot vest all their stocks and just live on the base salary. They have to sell those stocks to make some decent money for the year. I can’t imagine anybody vesting all their shares and never selling any of it.

      And I don’t think any 4 YoE ME is getting more than 30k per year in stocks.

      Yeah that's unfortunate when you have to cash immediately just to survive. Keeping my fingers crossed for my RSUs. Haven't had to liquidate yet

    Aren't you leaving millions in unvested Tesla stock - given 2020 performance?

    What is your current tc?
    Staff level should be around 180k base & 200k rsu (over 4 yra). so 201k tc is a bit low.
    Would rivian be something different in terms of work? Seems like its mostly ex-tesla people running the manufacturing ramp, which is probably going to be alot worse than the ramps at tesla since rivian is doing for the first time.
