I have virtual onsite setup with Verily for a L6 SWE role. The recruiter gave a TC range of 380k-450k. This seems low for L6 compared to L6 TC at Google and E6 at Facebook. Curious to know if Verily comp matches/beats FB/Google. Not sure if recruiter is trying to low ball Tc: 480k (E5 at FB)
That’s surprising, L6 should be able to get 500k pretty easily. Maybe you just crossed L6 which puts you in lower end of band.
That's just how Google works. They'll give a lower offer and when you tell then you have a competing offer or make more, they magically find an extra 50k-100k to throw at you.
Alphabet companies are not the same as google though. Waymo is different for example
You're right - I do know people who did the negotiation dance with them and it was Google-ish
The stock is more valuable than google stock. But also has more risk as its a startup.
Verily has its own stock ?
Don’t expect Google or FB level comp. if you’re just chasing dollars, Verily may not be the right fit.
Agreed. Though Verily does offer good comp and benefits while still having the upside of pre-IPO equity. You won't get that combination at a startup. Regardless, if OP is only after dollars and isn't excited about Verily's mission, then it's not the right place for them.
@glbv31 What do you mean pre IPO? Isn't verily part of Google?
Do they give RSUs?
Verily has its own RSU-like structure. It’s not alphabet stock. It’s Verily’s own.
This is a bit confusing. Can you explain a bit more? Are you talking options? How does verily pay compared to Alphabet? What's the vesting schedule like?
How hard is it to transfer from Verily to Google? Also if someone moves from Verily to Google, will the Verily stock vesting cycle still continue?
Old thread, but very interested to know the answer to this question
There is no longer any benefit to transfer from Verily to Google. They ended it in December. You have to go through the entire interview process again. Really bad negative to Verily vs Google. Stock does not carry over. Verily is Verily. Google is Google.
So does this mean that Verily no longer has access to Google systems and perks? Can I visit Google HQ if I work for Verily and show my parents around?
You still have access to all Google’s perks.
Is Verily hiring process /interview methods same as Google for PM and SWE?
That TC! 🎉 YoE at FB & industry?
Thanks. 9 yoe (3 at FB)
