Just got an offer from Uber for Staff SWE, which is level 5b (formerly Senior-2 before the level rename earlier this year). I know there haven't been many Uber offers lately, so hopefully this helps provide some context for the current market. Base: 245k Bonus: 43k Equity: 800k Signon: 20-50k (pending negotiation) Y1 TC = 590-620k (Yes, I know this looks like a 5a offer from earlier this year) Recruiter mentioned that due to "the market" that none of the comp components are negotiable except the signon bonus, which is a change since earlier in the year. I have a competing offer that's higher and the recruiter said it won't impact this offer, unfortunately. Current TC: 590k (with Snap price @9.50) YOE: 10 #uber
Seems not worth it for the risk and toxic culture
That's a really good offer, although you earn that. 5a were 450-500 so 5b at 590-620 looks good
Congrats on the offers, both look good for staff SWE. Until the top up runs out it doesn’t look like a big delta, but after that it’s a big difference.

I watched a few Nick White videos on YouTube. No hands on practice. Staff level interviews rarely put much emphasis on LC so I mostly just roll the dice on whether I get a LC problem that'll stump me or not
Uber recruiters always try this “offer is not negotiable” crap and it’s never true. If they’re extending an offer they want you there and they will absolutely negotiate if you push. Been there, rejected their offer, and got a call back later that afternoon with what I wanted.
I hate recruiters who say this. It is always negotiable. The only aspect with little wiggle room right now is RSUs.
Wow when snap was 70 dollar your tc was 5 million
lol no, I joined in the mid 40s then the price proceeded to plummet. Earlier this month i received a new equity grant to bring me back to target comp at 11.50 and then the stock price fell further
Is this equity for 3 years?
4 years, vesting schedule 35,30,20,10. Stacking equity refresh for year 2+ of a variable amount
Great offer. Will lock in a low equity price. Take it if you love the team.
Current level at snap?
L6
