Zendesk Offer
Recruiter reached out for Staff SRE - after interviewing and getting an offer, was told I was "strong senior" and could likely move up in 6-12 months. Offer (remote US): - 175k base - 90k RSU - 15k sign on I've been told this is maxed out to show commitment to me, but how hard is it to actually be promoted, and will I be tied to previous salary going forward? Tried and failed to negotiate any more, offer is locked in since it's maxed. Current TC: 180 Yoe: 10 #zendesk
Are those RSU’s per year?
Lol Zendesk is lame. Do better. Maybe Intercom?
Leetcode and find better. You can easily double.
10 YOE you should be making $500k
Minimum
Getting a promo in that timeframe is possible. It's not too hard to get promoted at that level. Of course it all depends on how well you perform.
BS. People don't get promoted that quick.
I got a promo and still taking a pay cut after the 4 year vesting cliff. Tons of people leaving right after that. Company need to refresh ppl's package, I feel like am being treated as something disposable
Zendesk is known for good wlb if you want to chill. You can spend 4-6 hours working and that will be alright. Not perf system. Slow pace. If you're looking for $$$, Zendesk is not for you.
Sre as in Foundation Compute ? Eitherways not worth it. Do better Op.
SRE is a different group AFAIK
For remote that would be max.
90k RSUs per year?
No, just on 4 year vest
