I have the following offer from Cisco (Duo Security).
Grade 8, Site Reliability Engineer, Austin, TX.
Base 130k, 12% annual bonus, 130k RSUs, no sign-on.

As per Levels.fyi and compared to my current TC, the compensation looks very good to me.
Should I have negotiated for more? also, need info on how the RSU and annual bonus works.

Current TC: ~79k in Austin, TX
YOE: 5

    Offer looks good. What's your YOE?

    Just a few things to consider:
    1. SRE role at Cisco is just a fancy term for production support.
    2. Once you join, don't expect raises unless you get a promo or are in your Manager's good books
    3. Push for a sign on. They usually give around 15k

      SRE role at Cisco is just a fancy term for production support. --> Read this earlier. Just need to move out of my current company.

      Not sure about the rest of Cisco but SRE at Duo Security is not a fancy term for prod support. You get to do actual SRE stuff ranging from performance to observability etc.
