Yelp London offer
Got initial numbers from yelp London. I was offered IC2, 75k gbp base, 70k$ rsu and 15k sign on an relocation. 5% bonus My yoe is 5.5 and I'm a T24 at PayPal. I believe the right level map would be IC3, and my interviews did go pretty well. Can someone suggest how do I go about negotiations. Should I directly ask for a level bump or ask for more Tc, I had 85-90k base and 150k$ in mind, is this possible for IC2 assuming they don't give level bump? Also, how does yelp compare to PayPal in general. Current tc: 46lpa, Bangalore #tech #offer #london #facebook #google
Did you check levels.fyi? Also, if you ask for a level rise, it will not work. Get a competing offer and fight them against each other.
I did check, competing offers in India would work?
Have you considered whether you would be able to save at least the same amount that you are saving in Bangalore? If yes what do you think you will be able to save in London based on what compensation Yelp has offered you right now?
Savings will be approx same or a little more. Around 24L
Converting savings to Rupees only matter if you plan to go back to India after some years.
Not sure about the salary but to speak for my experience for leveling, I also got IC2 when I should have matched at IC3 (I was IC2 in my previous job but there were 3 levels below me - at Yelp, 2 level below me but I didnt know at the time. So, yea I screwed myself in a way). IC2 for 5.5 year experience is definitely a low ball
I'm out of credits, can you please dm me, need some details.
can I dm you @okay? I saw some good match positions in Yelp London. yoe: 1.5, TC: 55k (not london)
For 70K you will get around 3500GBP on hand. If you are a bachelor then you can definitely save around 20L but don’t hope to save much in Europe.
If I'm saving the same amount as I'm in India and getting to have high qol of London, isn't that a win win? Don't forget the rsu and bonus which might increase my savings
Also, I wanted some opinion on what should I ask more for, do you happen to know Amazon L5 london comp?
OP - Check what base FB gives for L4 and then see how closer you are to that base. That way, you can understand how lower you are getting paid. Just for your understanding, FB pays 102k as base for L5.
60k GBP for E3. 80k for E4. 100k for E5 (base)
Thanks. How about rsu?
New grads get 100k RSUs for Yelp Hamburg and London.
Base for new grads?
Are you sure? I saw one more offer with 65k rsu at 2 yoe
Hey OP, which profile did you apply for? Also, can you please share your interview experience?
Swe. It was regular, hackerank. Phone screen then 4 rounds of onsite. LC medium at the most
Hey, thanks for sharing and congrats on the offer.
Maybe you could get 75 base... but above about there you'd have to convince someone you're IC3. Probably the only way to do that is have another London offer in hand. They won't care at all about a competing Indian offer. My guess is your interview didn't go as well as you thought it did, so the HM is down leveling you accordingly.
Any idea how long it might take to get promoted to IC3, and how much bump will I get once I get promoted?
If you are actually absolutely outstanding, 1 year is reasonable. It could be faster too, assuming you were borderline IC3. Re comp bump, no idea. Depends on how fast you achieve? Probably 10pct, but with a high degree of uncertainty
Hi OP! What was your final call, did you accepted the offer?
Is IC2 like L4? And how were your interviews?
L4?
Yes, IC2 maps to L4.
