TCs are still going through negotiations. But it looks like this atm TC: Snap > FB >= Uber Uber is offering UberX distributed systems team. Will be re-writing 2 tier 0-1 services. I'll get hands on work on distributed systems! Office will be in SF in financial district. Eventually will move to main HQ. Man, living and working in SF will be like getting the full city-life on blast. Snap is in Santa Monica LA. The work is in security/fraud org. This org is all mostly ex-Googlers. Met team members and they all seem super smart and kind. Santa Monica will be a big change in my lifestyle. So many hot girls here. I'm single and ready to mingle, you know what I mean? FB is in Menlo Park. Recruiter said there were offices in SF and LA and Austin and I could move about if I proved myself but until then I'll have to take the FB bus all the way from SF. Facebook seems to have some ridiculous perks for its employees...They are offering FB Messenger or Crypto Libra work. However, from a learning, mentorship, least stress, life-style, and job safety perspective, which of these 3 would you pick?
Let’s forget advice for now
Numbers or gtfo. Congrats on the offers . But seriously, numbers or gtfo.
Thanks! I'll post the initial numbers. Uber is getting Sr Director approval for a "massive sign on bonus" according to the recruiter. Snap is freaking out about Uber and is going up 40K. Snap doesn't even know I have a FB offer with me. Facebook thinks it can beat Uber but thinks Snap's numbers are fake money. So right now, FB: 167K Base, 300K stocks, 30K bonus Uber: 150K Base, 300K stocks, 15K bonus and 15K+ target refresh + "massive sign on bonus" Snap: 160K Base, 500K stocks + Willing to increase TC by 40K
Get that 100k sign on from FB using your snap offer
@ops thought FB has no dev roles in Austin.
No they don't :( But I want to be able to travel and work from different FB buildings if it comes to that.
Will Facebook be OK to give you remote option??
Fuck! These numbers have gotten high. Congrats OP.
Why FB > Snap yall? Just curious...it will most likely be between these 2.
If you’re “single and ready to mingle” then it’s Snap in Santa Monica all the way.
Underrated comment tbh
Try out LA. It’s so different from the Bay Area! And snap pays more than most companies in the Bay Area. You can always go back to the Bay Area/Seattle. 300k goes farther in LA than in SF. Also snap probably the best refresher policy right now in the industry. 1/8th of initial grant(standard grant at that level) every 6 months as refresher
To clarify, since the above is confusing, the annual refresher is 1/4 of the initial grant. And that doesn’t include any sign on equity they add to your package. For example, $1M equity grant and a sign on incentive of $200K/ 4 years. The refresher would peg to the $1M
What are your YOE? You already have a brand name on your resume with AMZN. FB will just be another one. I’d go with Snap or Uber for the growth opportunity. Personally I see more growth in Snap. Ask yourself, what company do you see having the most upside in 3 years? With upside also brings risk, but you have branding with AMZN to fall back on.
4.5 YOE. Is Amazon really a brand? Doesn't seem to have the same effect as FB / G.
