Hello everyone! I got the following offer from Sam's Club for their senior automation engineer role and would like to know if there is room for negotiation on base and RSU's. Location: Bentonville, AR Base: 135k + 20% yearly bonus (based on company performance) RSU: 45k yr 1 vesting over 3 years (no refreshers) No sign on bonus or grants I asked the recruiter about sign on and she asked me the number I have in my mind, how much does walmart typically pay for sign on? (I had 15k in my mind) Current TC: $0 (laid off from Shopify Logistics) Current location: Atlanta, GA YoE: 5.5 #fulfillment #logistics #supplychain
A sign-on bonus of $15,000 is typically considered standard, but you could request $20,000 in the event of potential negotiations.
Thanks! I saw some previous posts stating sign on is offered only for those under the CTO org. Not sure if this role falls under it. I'm still planning to send a counter offer.
Are you not going to get RSUs every year . As per my understanding Walmart gives RSUs every year , vesting is in 3 years .
Hey! I did check with the recruiter. She specifically mentioned the RSU is just given in year 1. Another recruiter from Walmart (for a different role) told me rsu are given every year. Not sure which is correct 🤦♂️
Walmart offer some cases have 2 RSUs 1. New joiner RSU giver ,in the quarter after joining 2. Annual RSUs are given every year in April Confirm with recruiter one more time
What are the typical salaries offered for data scientist positions in California (Sunnyvale/San Bruno)? Will be very helpful if someone can share their information
Aren't you in sams club/walmart?
I am in walmart. Just trying to figure out if what i am getting paid is something decent or not compared to walmart standard pay grades
Not competitive at all. Also enjoy seeing all your coworkers everywhere you go in NWA.
Lol I understand it's a small town but they are expanding like crazy in automation and at this point I'm ok making the move to NWA for the opportunity.
My suggestion would be to take some other offer, that team is not developer friendly. Unless you want to work on zoom calls 24/7.
I am not on the development side of it. I work on supply chain automation and engineering!
Are they making you relocate to Bentonville?. Sam's club has large presence in the Atlanta office. $135k seems low. On levels 0 yoe is making 105k in Atlanta
Yes! They are making me relocate for now but I've asked them for location options and recruiter said she will confirm! Where exactly is the atlanta office? And any idea what level this role is in?
Atlanta office is in midtown. Really nice. Software engineer 2 is entry level at Walmart. Maybe you will have more negotiation power if you can stay in the Atlanta location. Salaries seem higher for ATL vs Bentonville
