Hi blind <3 Got an E5/L5 offer from a FANG company. The base part seems ok-ish (150-200k) range, RSU is 150k/4 (500-600k/4 expected). No competing offers. No significant options/stock grant in current TC (outside US). Is it a standard practice by those companies? Is there something I can do to improve the offer? Tnx. YoE: 15 TC: 100k outside US
Get multiple offers and negotiate.
Assuming I can't get any more offers until this one expires.
There's basically nothing you can do. Amazon plays hardball on negotiations.
Where?
Switzerland
TC in the post is in USD or Swiss Franc?
Yes
Standard grant for non-US locations. Feel free to negotiate though.
You gotta compare with Switzerland pay and not US
Cost of living pretty much matches Bay Area.
That's not how it works in corporate world. If you want US pay then you will have to move to US
Wow careem sucks. What's your base monthly salary in DHS?
I'd suggest coming into negotiations by declining the offer. Either there will be a significant improvement in the offer so you can 4x current TC instead of 2x or they will mostly likely pass on you and offer the next candidate the same package.
Where in Switzerland? Which company? Is it Oculus or Google? If it’s Google, I know some ranges that my friends got. But give us the company! Also note that Switzerland has much lower taxes than the US. Like way lower. Like 15% types. The housing is cheaper, quality of living is higher, manual labour and food more expensive but you end up saving more than you do in the US even if you earn 30k lesser than in the US.
Share your friend's ranges pls. Another thread says it's 190k+300k/4 L5 G Zurich and it was 2018.
Dude at least tell which company it is! It’s an anonymous forum and I feel weird revealing my friends’ salary information if you can’t even tell the company.
It's Google. Decent base, low RSU.
