Where are you located? $250k in San Francisco for example with 10 years of experience is very doable. How? RSU's. Look for big and hot tech companies and that's it. If you're talking about $250k as a base salary, then I'd say forget about it unless you move into management. Even then, it would take you years to get there. If your wife starts working then your total monthly income will definitely make it easy for you to raise a family in the Bay Area. Again, I'm totally guessing, you could be located in Nebraska or Canada I don't know..
Long story short - RSU's in big companies.
- godelmachine 8y agoDoes RSU mean restricted stock unit?
- bsvalley 8y agoMy bad, I forgot to specify... Yes, Restricted Stock Units. A new grant usually vests over 4 years. It starts with your one year anniversary when 25% of your grant vest. Then after it's every 6 months you get 12.5%. Every year they may give you another round of RSU's (on a new 4 year vesting plan)
