Salesforce LMTS Offer Evaluation

Base: 230k RSU: $450k / 4 -> Offer says the actual number is based off of the average of the previous months - is that normal to not give an absolute RSU unit? Bonus: 15% TC: 380k / yr assuming I hit bonus YOE: 8 Currently a Lyft L5 (400k TC) #salesforce #lyft

PIP is a possibility. Not saying as an insult but as a data point. Sometimes it’s not the right fit

I'd take a 20K paycut if quality of life significantly improves (e.g. less stress, no toxic environment, no asshole manager, etc.)

Salesforce sfdchomer Feb 28, 2020

That seems solid. You could try to negotiate some on the RSUs but probably not a huge amount.

Lyft cowcow339 OP Feb 28, 2020

Any guesses on RSU total I could push to? 500k? 600k? And agreed, its definitely a solid offer.

Salesforce sfdchomer Feb 28, 2020

500 would probably be the upper bound

Is this in HQ?

It looks solid

This is the best offer I have seen for LMTS at Salesforce on blind and levels. Same TC for better WLB is definitely a good deal as that's what you are looking for. Even a 20K pay cut isn't that bad but you can definitely ask them to match RSU or at least TC.

i have a similar offer (lower base, higher rsu). seems to be the top end for lmts new hires now

What’s the rationale behind joining Salesforce from Lyft and Facebook ? Is it reputed in the valley ?

Lyft cowcow339 OP Mar 4, 2020

Its definitely lower tier in comp & reputation. It's known to have more WLB, though Lyft is supposedly known for WLB too...

Nutanix abcsce Mar 4, 2020

Ok

Did you look into other companies with better wlb ? Adobe, Microsoft ? Do they pay comparable?

Lyft cowcow339 OP Apr 21, 2020

I got to on-site with Microsoft but covid hit and didn’t finish process. Didn’t go for adobe
