Salary + bonus + RSUs. It all depends on your grants, perf, etc.

  That's pretty broad. What, $150k base for a good engineer then $50k cash bonus and $50k stock? That gets us to the lower end, and it's already way above the upper end of what I've heard. Are we talking about your average engineer in mid-career, or is this 10x 100x rockstar 0.1% could-totally-happen-to-you-though BS?

    A level 5 engineer can pull $170-190k base. $30k bonus. Depending on RSU grants and refreshes, you'll can be vesting at least $100k per year. That puts you over $300k total compensation. Combined with benefits and perks, as well as good culture, you can imagine it's pretty hard to convince yourself to go elsewhere.

    250k is way above the upper end of what you've heard? I knew a guy who was at $200k at one of the usual suspects straight out of undergrad. It's easy for me to imagine twice that for people with more of a track record.

    I've seen interns regularly get offered full-time positions with 100-120k base + 100k RSUs. It's not at all unusual.

      Ive had an intern of another company (the one I worked for) and he got offered exactly that (and he got hired, the guy aint crazy - its an awesome first job offer)
