Hulu TC
Base: 150k LTI New hire grant: 140k over 3 year Bonus: 7% Annual LTI: 25% target Sign on bonus: 50k This is for Mid level FE engineer role at Hulu Is this a good offer, thoughts on Hulu? #offer
Only if you promise to implement a "skip intro" button 😩
There is a skip intro button…but it’s not on every show 😩
I’ll see what I can do about it 😂
Looks good but I'm in design so might differ. Hulu/Disney recently went thru a re-org/level. The target bonus and annual LTI will be the same for people in the same level. I didn't get a new hire LTI nor Sign on bonus 😢
Oh yes that is something that’s a bummer for sure about the LTI staying constant😔 thanks for that info! That’s very helpful! Yeah this offer is after 2 rounds of negotiating, so I couldn’t push anymore. But the bonus wasn’t offered until I pushed for a change in base or LTI. I feel it’s strong, but not sure on the promo potential at Hulu, if it’s difficult to get promoted or not? I’d count on becoming senior eng after 2,3 years. Just feel not ready for FAANG kind of WB straight off the bat tbh 😅 and I heard good things about the WB at Hulu while not offering too low compensation like at yahoo.
yeah Ive been here for about 2 years now, from what I've seen people usually get promoted after 2-3 years with the company. I think Hulu has the higher comps within the company too
I am not a manager, but based on what I've seen, for 3YOE, I think this is a solid offer at Hulu. You did well by negotiating the Sign-on bonus and new hire grant. I believe that with that initial grant + bonus your TC will be close or at the same level as many Sr. SWE (Disney P3) in Y1. When it comes to work and culture, I don't want to minimize what we have gone through over the past year, it has been rough. But as a new hire, you will have the opportunity to work on one or more products that have a huge reach. True, many of us will end up working on two different platforms... at the end of the day is a matter of perspective either you are doing double duty or you will get to work on and unify two of the largest streaming platforms. Hopefully, you'll end up in a good team where burnout is not the norm. If you decide to join, best of luck to you, there are very interesting times ahead of us.
I decided to accept their offer. I figured the same, that I would get valuable look into the merging of two large streaming products, which I expect work ahead but pretty solid career growth opportunities. I still consider myself early stages in my career so I value the growth opportunity. Thank you for the valuable insight, I really appreciate it! It’s good to know my negotiating led to something solid, they were a little tough to get to flex!
What lvl is it?
Yoe?
