About to head to the HC for a role in ProdOps and Strategy in Mountain View. 4 YoE at MBB, no competing offers. Recruiter gave me a form that asks expected comp.
Levels.fyi has only PM salaries. I haven’t been told the level but expect it to be L4.
What total comp would you expect for this role? Any advice would be super helpful, as I’m a bit lost.

As someone who joined in 2022, total comp has essentially stayed flat for 3ish years. You may get lucky with stock appreciation but don't count on it
Wow that's a really different incentive model. Gone are the days where we enjoy 25% flat and get a solid comp increase from Y2-4 before going flat.

No, refreshers should make up for the decline. I like front loaded vesting, you get your rsus in hand faster.
But even if you didnt get refreshers you’re dealing with the same quantity whether its this ^ or 25/25/25/25

Your base will go up slightly, depending on performance. Have you factored that into the equation?
Google started front loading vesting schedules a year or two back, it was usually 25% each year for 4 years. With the front load, you actually have more leverage if you’re looking to make a move in a short period of time.

It’s L at Google, and the vesting schedule is level independent
