I'm a Senior Engineer at LinkedIn with $450K TC due to stock appreciation. Is this competitive for my level?

Lol. How does stock appreciation affect TC...

like

Most tech companies pay their employees with a combination of salary and some form of stock compensation. The stock awards are granted in one year but don’t vest and become available for use by the employee until years in the future. The stock price appreciation in the time between grant and vest increases the amount the employee will actually earn as compensation.

When I joined Amazon over three years ago, the price of the shares was below $1000. At that time, I was granted 100 shares that vest this year. Back in 2017, the value of that grant was approximately $100,000. Now, it is $320,000. Thus, the stock appreciation has directly impacted my total compensation.

I respect his habits and I've been pretty cautious (cont. in comments)
