    That year end bonus is not accurate at all. Ford is still struggling to meet 100% performance and bonus is consistently near 1/4 what they state on the offer.

      I've had a bad bonus every year I've worked at this company. It's just a joke at this point.

    The base is a little low for LL6 but making LL6 with only 3 YoE is very good.

    PM and PO are not the same thing.

    Bonuses are multiplied by a performance factor (usually less than 1.0) then cut in half by taxes. After that is your actual bonus.

    I have my 2nd round with the hiring manager at Ford next week. I’m also at 3 yoe, and this seems low. I wouldn’t be switching roles based on my current TC of 120k.

    I’m sad if this what’s ahead of me.

    Very good offer. That is a much higher bonus level than I have and I have three times your experience in a different position (PD). The company culture at Ford is outstanding. Lots of extremely bright, professional people.

    Mine was (based in Michigan):

    $125K base pay
    $9K bonus
    $20K sign on bonus
