This ($1m total comp) is becoming more and more common. I know of a guy making $650k base and $400k in RSUs first year. Just a Java individual contributor, but with a reputation and buddies high up.
- mercutio2 7y agoA $400k RSU grant is not $400k towards total compensation in the first year. RSUs generally vest over 3-4 years, so at the end of the first 12-13 months, it’s another $100k towards total comp. You may or may not receive additional grants in future years. If you get $400k grants every year, you might get up to $1M/year, but not immediately.
