Guys, on a serious note, what's a reasonable TC for NYC? And I know it looks low.

I'd say thats def on the low side Comparable - L4 for NY FB PM is ~160 base ~10% bonus -40k+ in equity + Sign on varies So we're looking around 220K+ Based on your YOE you could be L4 or L5, so I'd say they're lowballing you pretty severely. That TC is more in the range of L3

Thank you for the advice!!! Super helpful. Was able to negotiate to 220K TC with 15K sign-on :) (This is OP. I lost access to my other account so have to use my friend's)
