Any tips on negotiating level or is it limited to RSUs?

You’re interviewed with a level in mind so if you negotiate up they might ask you to start over. There’s comp overlap between levels but with 1-4 years between promos, choose wisely.

Ok so is there room to negotiate early promotion ?

funny

Agree with everyone OP. I joined at a L5 a few months ago. I had 8 yoe in a boutique strategy consulting practice. The hiring manager happened to be a L6 so the recruiter personally suggested that I wont get a L6. I took the offer never the less. I am hoping to make it to L6 in 18-24 months. ATB with the decision you make

What role? And TC?

There’s a small possibility you could get promoted at your year mark but you’d have to be superb and show you were under leveled, as well as show your impact across your PA/Google.

I’m wondering what your drive is here- do you have an offer and think it’s too low? Are you just seeing the possibilities?

Thanks all, in the process of interviewing so just curious. Appreciate your responses!

Back with an offer. Realize I can’t negotiate on level but the TC offered seems low. I’m in a cheaper city on the east coast and would have to move to the Bay Area. Realize the move isn’t immediate due to Covid but evaluating the offer with location in mind. Comp is at 200/yr for L5, how much room do
I have to negotiate?

+1 to Manager1.
My only add might be that you can ask but they might not grant it - but have to ask :)

I am interviewing for a new IT Manager position. I started putting out soft feelers and then hit the hunt harder. The problem: I have one offer and need to give an answer by next Wednesday. I have two other opportunities that are in final steps but probably won’t have offers by next Wednesday. Both of the other offers will be higher pay but clearly are uncertain for offers. Do I accept the offer I have, which is a good one or wait for the other two to finalize and possibly miss out altogether?
