Annoyed by all the repeated questions about offers on Blind, I went to collate the numbers from the posts I see on Reddit and Blind.

I update this list as and when I see compensation discussions on Blind. If you would like to contribute data, please comment and I will update accordingly.

      Hey guys
      1. Not an ML role, Android eng, 8 years of experience
      2. Tips - make sure you have good negotiating offers. Uber, Airbnb, Lyft and similar unicorns are your best bet since they offer outrageous shares (even though its air money). Also read β€œhow to not bomb your offer negotiation” part 1 and 2. Super helpful.
      3. Yes 800 is for 4 years, 200 per year.
