Obviously false. The companies with the lowest compensation offer minimum wage, or purely paid in worthless "equity".
They could mention that before the interviews, wondering why should they waste everyone's time ?
Ask for more!!
Ask for a higher base. The bonus is non existent for any role under VP level
Need some context
Initially started the discussion at 130k for senior positions and after interview reduced it to 115k
Why are you even interviewing there if you are at Google?
