I got a remote L6 SWE offer at Google but the RSUs are too low for that level ($625k over 4 years), could not negotiate it higher. I’ve accepted the offer but trying to be hopeful that I could make it more equitable in the future if I perform well. Are stock refreshers based on the initial RSU grant or solely based on performance? Google

Decision making timeline versus start date timeline
I always prioritize decision making timeline with a willingness to be flexible on start date timeline. Candidates sitting on an offer for one week (nevermind longer) aren’t going to get any more excited about your opportunity over time.
I’m aware this approach doesn’t work for everyone but to me how you prepare the candidate for the offer and provide them with relevant information along the way should help set the stage for a decision making window no longer than a few days.
48-72 hours. At the point of extending an offer, I'd expect the candidate to have a pretty good idea of whether or not the organization and/or role is a good fit for them.
