I have worked at TikTok US core tech for 3 years. AMA.
Got a verbal offer from Uber for l6- senior staff. 272k, 55k, 300k (y1), 40k sign on (potential to negotiate) - please suggest how to push and what does good look like ? (Non software engineer role) Current TC- 390k, MCOL (tier-2), all cash Is the move worth it? Relocation is offered but capped at 15k. Where do most folks stay in bay area? Would like to check out few places to guesstimate rent/ mortgage if I were to move? Other option is to relocate to NYC, slightly low TC ($560) #Uber
Relocate
Do u have a family? What’s your net worth. Bay Area isn’t as bad as ppl on blind always say, especially with your TC.
Family of 4(2 kids), net worth 1.5M, inherited 6m
Bro/sis you will live in luxury with that cash, even in super expensive Bay Area
Man that’s lowball offer for senior staff. Also is L6 senior staff or staff?
Is RSU 1.2M? Why did you mention y1 specifically next to 300k?
Looks like their vesting is front loaded and y2 onwards is based on refreshes
What is their total RSU then?
Strong TC bump. Probably can negotiate 50k-100k more. Welcome to Bay area. Good for you for grinding even with 6M inheritance. You did life perfectly 👌
What is your current level in salesforce
Others may disagree but Bay Area always sucked but more so post pandemic, personally I’d either go NYC or stay where you are in MCOL
Can you go to uber Seattle, lower state income tax but same TC
Non software engineering?
No not software engineering but related (trying not get into specifics)
Is the pay band of your role higher or lower than SDE at Uber?
