Can one get 1M worth stocks (25000 units). I have very strong competing offers. If not, what is the max range? Current TC 350K
15k is about right if you have good competing offers. Also you are right sometimes it doesn't make sense to switch if you are from Google or FB. Lot of companies out there cannot match your current TC.
But how will it be lower than the current tc? 15k stocks is 600k at current 409a. So 170k base + 150 stocks+ 30k bonus is about 350k. Plus you get about 100k in refreshers. Also if you believe at IPO there will be significant upside then your TC will be way highr
Yes almost same as my current TC. but Uber stock is paper money until it ipo.
How many YOE?
6years
Give it a shot regardless. Hopefully Uber will do what’s necessary to give you a competitive offer. Source - EM at Uber
Does exception need approval from CTO? How long can this exception process can take? Your reply can really help me
If you’re really just chasing money - it might be better not to join at all ( Uber’s comp philosophy has changed a lot). Also, at current valuation of stock it’s unfair to compare TC, since growth of Uber equity is going to be (arguably) higher than other similar competitive offers. If that’s not true - you should be joining that other company with higher growth potential anyways.
Your expectations are unrealistic for a private company, especially vs outliers like FB and Goog. There is IPO upside that will require you to take a short term hit for a mid term bump. Sorey, that's pretty commonly accepted.
If you are google L5 with 6 yoe you should be pretty good. You should also interview other companies. Given that, Uber’s valuation is extremely underestimated, at least this is what I believe. If you don’t believe this you better stay at google.
18000 is high end of L5a as far as I know
At 5a? Fuck no. Maybe at 6.
What is the max 5a stock grant you have heard?
15000 if you’re lucky
