I am fairly certain that the median salary for engineers at Google is (much) more than that. If you count bonuses and RSUs, the pay package for new graduates in 2014/15 is already more than $130k.
- umanwizard 12y agoRSUs should be counted when they vest, not when they're awarded. Otherwise you can make it sound like you're paying anyone any amount of money. "I'm giving you a $200,000 signing bonus! Vests at $1,000 yearly for 200 years."
- jholman 12y agoI agree with your accounting rules. The parent can be assumed to be following them, with plenty of room to spare.
- umanwizard 12y agoOh... That's a bit surprising, then. I didn't realize starting packages in SF has gotten so high.
- judk 12y agoRSUS are awarded as $x/yr for n years, vesting starts at 12/months or sometimes less, so including them in annual figures is non- controversial, until you start seeing employee turnover at <1yr. The only tricky part is do value then at grant day price or vest day price or some average thereof. RSUs are 0-price options
