One thing to keep in mind is that (in theory, but also from what I have seen in practice) better starting salary at Google will fairly quickly be negated by smaller raises in the future.
Same level / performance will be equal after a few years, so the really important thing to work on is (perceived) performance.
- nomel 8y ago> Same level / performance will be equal after a few year For the person who didn't start higher, the difference between those curves is lost income.
- kmonsen 8y agoIt is true, but starting higher and not progressing as quickly can also lead to feeling of broken promises.
- alkibiades 8y agoyes but someone with a 50k equity grant will never make it up versus someone with a 200k one. (yes i’ve seen both)
- kmonsen 8y agoRefreshes will quickly be much more important
- alkibiades 8y agothey actually don’t. you can do the math. people actually usually have a steep income drop off when their initial grant runs out
- kmonsen 8y agoThis is not my experience at all. Refreshes have been much, much larger than initial grant (almost 10x)
