Got an offer for Uber, currently at Twitter

Senior
175k + 600k RSU

Twitter
210k TC

Did not negotiate with Twitter at all but I am a top performer and received large bonuses. Told manager I wanted to be earning about 300k but feels like such a large jump. I want to do things right this time around and negotiate and get what I deserve so I’m not constantly second guessing my comp. Uber at least values me properly?

      why not just tell twitter you want to renegotiate your salary bc you are a top performer. fair enough request esp for eng in the bay, regardless of whether you had offer or not

      OP
      I have said that, see OP. I don’t know how to make it more serious with my manager but when they are back from vacation I will bring it up again.

    Geez. Uber offers have really decreased since the summer...had an offer for sde2 with similar equity, but 160k base. You should get more offers.

    Excellent offer I must say 600k RSU is not bad and by the time Uber goes public it will be incredible gain..how many years of work ex u have ?

      But we do treat RSUs in public companies as compensation. Otherwise most of us would go to finance which pays 5x as much cash. How can you reasonably treat RSU as worth 0?

      Who knows... but totally in different business, so don't expect snapchat nose dive.

    Even for 5b, it’s a really good offer. You can’t negotiate much. That’s one thing I like about the new uber... we have bands per level - and unless you’re an industry EXPERT/SME in a very special field critical to uber ( very few roles ) the bands will be respected. We want smart people who believe in uber and want to help it grow, not those who are just interested in numbers game... I know of a couple of cases where the candidates said they had an alternate stronger offer and we didn’t budge on our offer. One declined us and another accepted ...

      Get the fuck out of Twitter, that ship stock is sinking faster than the titanic.
