My recruiter said during our initial phone screening that he would be willing to offer the top of his budget for an L3 level role if I am given an offer and it matches the comp he initially laid out, should I still negotiate or just take what's given considering he told me that that's the top of his budget?

Try to negotiate anyway. There's a big difference betweenn"would be willing" to offer top of band and actually offering it. Be sure to do your research being careful to consider compensation in the specified location.

Focus on equity

The recruiter doesn’t determine the comp, there’s a comp team that does that based off of your packet. Base and bonus are least moveable, but generally room to negotiate RSU or sign on.

Hey Gente, Im applying for jobs and I wanted to get others opinion on the race part of the application process. As an indigenous LatinX I worry that if I put indigenous it won’t tick the “diversity” box for the algorithm or recruiters. I work with (not in) the I&D dept at my company and our target recruiting groups don’t include or mention indigenous. Any recruiters here that have insight?

I was just talking to a younger friend who goes to Cal and It seems like the kids these days hate FAANG or at least Amazon and Facebook are not desired at all. I personally don’t see too many issues working at either Amazon or Facebook because I work at Deloitte where I’m sure we have many questionable clients and worked in financial services before. Curious on whether people are thinking about the ethics of their exit company when deciding to move?

Question for ex-consulting (esp MBB) folks who landed up at Google - are you happy with the decision you took? Why / why not? I'm an MBB Consultant with an offer for a role in Strat Ops in another country. Also evaluating a similar role in a fast growing, publicly lister SaaS company closer to home - faster growth, more flex to work remotely. Want to understand if consulting folks are happy with Google overall, despite a potentially slower / more open ended growth path.
