Title: Sr Software Engineer Level: IC 3 Base - 160k RSU - 100k Bonus - 10% YOE: 12 Current TC - 175k Current title - Staff software engineer How to push for Staff level or push Base to 200k RSU to 150k? Is it worth negotiating in this market? Any tips appreciated.# #tech #servicenow @servicenow
160 base seems really low for sr role in Bay Area
Agree, but don’t have other offers and not getting calls readily
Are you sure 100k rsu per year or per four ?
Not sure how the refreshers are at ServiceNow. Any idea?
It’s probably per 4
Younger engineers in bay area are gonna be much more poorer compared to the existing staff engineers because of this declining TC. People wont even be able to rent a decent apartment pretty soon
Not sure about that but I feel it’s a reasonable compromise given market condition
Push for staff and that will automatically garner a higher tc. I know guys that got Sr. SWE with 5 yrs experience in India.
You are right but market is different now. Not getting calls and I need this money. How would you put it across?
Does serviceNow offer remote positions also for software engineering, staff level?
I think base is around the SSE level. RSU is low, you can ask them for increased RSU.
Usually your IC level gets decided by your interview and it is not something you can negotiate. If they decided you are IC3, then you most likely are in that level. When was the last time you got promoted to sr. engineer? Could you talk with the hiring manager regarding your level or a possible raise soon? We have few headcounts opened up for the new year but that was before Google and others announce the new round of layoffs, and chances are they get closed soon. I was hopeful for a bullish 2024 but with these new layoff started in our industry again, I am not really sure
Is the interview different for ic4 compared to ic3? Are there bands within the levels?
