Hello, I'm an automation engineer. I have 8+ years of experience(4 years overseas, 4 years in US). I have an offer from a midsize company in Seattle. They are offering 150k base, 100k stocks, 7% annual bonus. No signon bonus. Any thoughts? People familiar with the market rate in Seattle area, do you think I can get better offers than this?
It is an average offer. Is 8 years post graduate and US based experience in related field?
Ok, that's what I thought. What do you think would make that a good offer? To break down my experience, 4 years before graduate school, 2 years of graduate school, and 4 years of US experience.
Most companies only count the 4 years US experience unless you worked for a US based company abroad. Your offer is inline with Microsoft SDET 2 which is inline with your YEO.
