I’m currently in the interview process for a new grad swe position. I have a new grad offer from FB for $110k salary, $160k rsu/4 years $65k sign on. I was offered interviews at: Caspar AI Asana Stripe Airbnb Rubrik Robinhood Optiver Trading Cloudflare Confluent Affinity Snap (Application Security Engineer) Microsoft I don’t have time for them all and am only interested if they can match or beat FB’s offer. Does anyone know which one of these companies fits that category?
Stripe, Robinhood, Airbnb, LinkedIn. Optiver will offer more base and cash bonus but no RSUs, so if you're planning to use it as counter, it won't help. Above 4 will. Msft will if your interviews were good/you are returning intern with strong intern experience/strong competing offers.
Thanks!
Snap and Airbnb will be competitive on salary. Also got Twitch is really paying too if you’re interested
MS will match that if you do well in the interview (probably 50 sign on but 113-115 salary), they will max out at 200 rsu.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha unlikely. From the company that was notorious for giving new grads 60k RSU offer?
You dont know much about the latest offers from MS. I do. You just have to be a highly rated returning intern or a have a strong competitive offer, which op has.
Where is that at op? Palo Alto?
seattle
Seems really good for Seattle. Friend of mine when to snap as a new grad and got 115k base and 350k RSU that’s vests 10,20,30,40.
Fb location?
Rubrik might beat that TC. We have options though so depends on how you value them.
220 tc is insane... i’ll definitely try hard during my interview haha. I got the Stripe onsite today, but they said their first opening is Nov 30th (deadline with fb is nov 1st). Is it worth signing with FB and reneging later if I get a solid offer?
Also do what’s best for you in terms of reneging, California is a free will employment state, wouldn’t worry about it too much , especially if stripe is this slow
Feel free to PM. There’s no options btw, I was just asking broadly how I should value options at startups
You should take Optiver.
Airbnb may, it’s paper money though — snap maybe also.
