It’s worth nothing that most of these numbers are inflated from share price increases boosting the value of RSUs vesting over 4 years. New offers at the higher levels from those companies are unlikely to be that high unless you are coming in at the top of the pay band for the level.

That's not true. New hire offers are roughly around these numbers.

The way I understand it, it's the number of RSU that are offered each year, at the time of them being offered. If so, then the movement of the stock price is irrelevant.

  Per zuhayeer’s comments elsewhere in the thread, that doesn’t seem to be the case.

    I only saw one relevant comment from him and it doesn't address this question? Others have mentioned that it's primarily based on offers, in which case my interpretation stands.

Nope. These seem pretty spot on for new hire compensation. Most people don't incorporate stock inflation when reporting their total compensation. I'm an L5 that joined one of those companies last year, and earn 440k/yr. If I counted stock inflation, it would be 500k/yr.
