To jump from 135K base to 145K it takes at least 2 yrs (if not longer) after you perform well in your job. So, without knowing the other factors (like role, culture, future growth, etc.,), I would take Offer 2.

You only get the sign on bonus 1 time. Also I would go with the company that you would have to most growth.

I would go with the one with the highest pay. You might want to look at the company year after year earnings and profit. Also I know WK is a multi faceted company in many industries. But the decision is yours

I’ve worked on the CT CORP side of WK for 5 years now, and I’ve had a variation of bonus structures, but I have never received under $10K for the year. The variable is based on overall company revenue and your performance rating.

May I ask what pay grade was the offer for John Deere?

Variable bonus could potentially be better for you at WK. Depending on the gates/goals they give you. Ask what those are and always ask. Is this negotiable? Always- recruiter or not

Is this job at JD Labs (in SF)? Outside of that office, I didn't think we offered visa sponsorship.

I would say the culture at Deere is really great, and there is a surprising amount of cutting edge robotics and tech work going on. Moving around the company is fairly easy too if you want to try new things. If you want absolute income optimization, you're not going to get that at Deere, but the salaries scale up more than one might expect.

What level are you coming in at? If I'm San Francisco I would guess Senior? If anywhere else I'm guessing Staff?

Oh I now see I'm 9 weeks late to this. I don't open this app much.

What did you decide?

Got an offer for SE III at a large tech company. Product I'd be working on interests me and I think I could grow more than in my current role.

Currently I make 180k base and have ISO/RSUs @ startup (60k/yr worth on paper, but won't be worth anything for a few years, if at all).

The offer is:
Base: $166,500
Target Bonus: 10% ($16,650)
RSU: 120k total (30k/yr)

Thoughts on offer? Should I counter?

Additionally there's a yearly target RSU bonus about equal to the cash bonus. Thoughts? 4.5 YOE
