Way low... 350k-500k in total comp

You went low on comp. I was going to suggest jeans and button down, but given it feels like you’re a noob, I’d suggest khakis to help reinforce the naïveté

EY1 really? Glassdoor says range is 130-140K base

EY1 was too high, but 200 is low for a senior software dev. Should’ve gone for 250-350

Which group in FB and what SE role?

Group is FB infra, Thanks for the suggestions, I will communicate enhanced expectations in the formal round.

Which city? Sf? Compare your comp in new city.tools available online. 250 should be good .

EY1 has no idea what he/she is talking about. But 200k is low. A good salary would be around $175k and RSU about $200k-300k vesting over four years. Source: SO and bunch of friends are in tech. Aim for total comp of about $250k

EY1’s number are a bit high but not that crazy. Depends which level they bring you in. 160-190 base is reasonable. Cash bonus: ~15%. Initial RSU grant: probably 250-350ish vesting over 4 years. You may also be able to get a signing bonus: 30-50. Ideally you’d want to get a competing offer. Cash component of compensation is doesn’t offer much room for negotiations, but the RSU range is pretty wide. It’s not impossible to get an initial grant of 500-600k. 300+ total comp should be very achievable

On another app, I saw someone get the following offer at Facebook (level 5):
Base: 185, target cash bonus: 15%, RSUs: 600 (vesting offer 4 years), signing bonus: 50
With signing bonus, first year compensation has the potential to exceed 400. At that level, getting an additional 100-150 in RSUs each year is typical (vesting over 4 years). I’ll let you do the math, but if you stay for 4-5 years there is definitely good potential to accumulate $ (assuming the stock price remains stable)

I’m in big law and on the cusp of making the jump to in-house. It sounds like the company I just interviewed with is getting ready to make me an offer. It’s definitely going to be a pay cut coming from big law but I do get some nice equity in the company. Is the jump worth it? I’m so burnt out by big law and this seems like an awesome opportunity to help shape a newish company. Any tips on how to figure out if this is the right move for me?

When I moved in-house a year ago as a BigLaw mid-level, I took a 45% pay cut, far more than I was comfortable with (although I was fine with a 20-30% cut). I took the job because it was a great role and I was focused on making the jump in house and developing the skills I wanted, which required me moving away from my firm practice area. Now that my year-end review is coming up, how do I ask my company for a significant pay raise (not just a 2-5% inflation-matching raise)?
