current tc 190k YOE 0.5 drops alot after year 1/2 got google offer L3 tc 195k - maybe i can get like 210k they said they are starting hybrid work starting jan. rn im remote live with parents and live in a low tax state. so i have 0 expenses. livinbg in cali would make my tc lower also i really dont want to leave my family bc of a recent death. also my work here is very very stale and i dont really wana stay. I only want to work remote for 1 year and then im willing to work in person ik i can easily get an L4 offer from a unicorn within the nest 6m-1y and get 300k+. do you guys think its possible for me to get remote work if i give an ultimatum? team is google cloud sunnyvale? edit: i asked recuiter and he said not really an option. the manager also said we expect you to be in office. but i have not firmly asked yet
That’s a good offer for L3, google cloud and Sunnyvale suck though
can u explain this a bit more? y does it suck?
Cloud everywhere is ex-AWS people with bad WLB.
I think you are quite clear in what you want. Tell them exactly this. Seems legit to me. If google doesn’t budge, there are other companies. You cracked google, you already did the grind, you can get other offers.
I mean, just tell them how it is! You would really love joining the opportunity, but it's simply not competitive given that remote is not an option. Emphasize that you'd love to join if this was available remote, or if they want you in the office, it'd have to be 100k more. You're obviously not going to take a 60k paycut just to work at Google, so nothing to lose, really.
Is Google offer valid for a year? Can always re eval in a year and see if u change your mind
im not sure how it works
Not if you interviewed for a specific role.
Someone else will gladly take your place.
what does this even mean ? it has nothign to do with wat were talking about
No stable company will give you 300k+ for 1-1.5YOE. Consider if you have a visa and make a decision. Jumping at 2 YOE would be the right move. You could stay at google for year and half and then jump
That's just not true. I got several offers over $300k with 1 YOE, BS, both from FAANG and trading firms. Have several friends who've done the same.
Can you list them and help the community, I personally had to wait until a little less than 2YOE with a masters for a top school to be considered for L4. Even then FB and G would only offer 310k Avg. I have offers from other unstable companies going up to 340k like snap and Roblox and a hedge fund. I hope you are considering sign on as avg and no front loading while calculating the TC
Just explain your situation to them and hear them out. Check if there is any other team that will hire you and give you remote. If the whole team is expected to come to work for a few days a week, I don’t see why they would make an exemption just for you, unless you are exceptionally good.
It’s dependent on the org and whatever the VP decided. Many were not inclined to let junior people (<L5)work remote. You could emphasize your family situation when you ask directly but prepare to be told no.
“Give an ultimatum”…yes sire….we are here at your beck and call!! Please command us!!!
Y are u salty ? Fragile ego?
Totally. Didn’t you get the memo? Give an ultimatum for that as well
very smart move, I did the same. there are a lot of companies that have remote work and pay better than google anyways. not sure when google will catch up with everyone else
