Got I63 from Microsoft and I15 from Pinterest. Microsoft TC: $330k Pinterest TC: $425k Yoe: 7 Location: Bay Area Thinking in terms of growth opportunities, perks and wlb. In Microsoft, it will be most likely in Azure. Current TC: $265K
You'll absolutely hate it when moving to MS, especially from a startup. Even in Azure, it might feel like things move at a glacial pace... tooling is poor and teams are hit and miss in terms of culture. Since you have another offer, I strongly recommend you negotiate to the hilt (trying upgrading to L64). The only bright spot might be the stock and a front seat on the AI train.
They are not budging on the level or compensation.
You could try negotiating microsoft. But wlb is not good in azure, not sure why you would think that. The perks are not better either at msft
I thought “perks” were the only good thing about Microsoft (especially 401K), no?
Whats the offer breakdown at Pinterest? Don’t they have front loaded equity? How long did it take you to team match?
Yeah they are giving a good amount of equity ($350k+) on joining plus their vesting is quarterly based. But they don't have an annual cash bonus or sign on bonus.
Got it. How long did it take for team match? I have been in team match for few months so curious.
Your TC will go down after 1st year by a lot with PINS
They said there would be a stock refresher around $200k (vesting equally over three years) to compensate for that. Isn't that true?
How is the culture and wlb?
Why do you want to leave Moveworks?
