Hey Rahul, I completely stumbled on your video randomly. Idk if you remember, but back in 2011, we worked together for an algos assignment in CS 161. Glad to see you are producing awesome content! Ironically, I now work at Google.
I got in Meta as a contractor coming from a small company and i had the thought that big tech was unrealistic and probably not for someone my level given my background, and i gotta say i am VERY amazed on the difference, i think i'll stay on big tech territory if possible from now on, not only compensation is amazing but also the teams and the work you do is very fulfilling, i wish i can be a full time employee tho but i am fine as it is
I work full time as Meta in MPK HQ. I think my biggest gripe has been how people assume how it is inside based on all the media without knowing actual facts. I have nothing but positive experiences all around, with people, perks, benefits, pay and the on campus free food is mind blowing-- 28 cafes and restaurants and sweet shops. Business class flights everywhere and all expense paid hotels and additional 75 per day for spending and shit ton of other perks. Best transition in my career hands down.
Seattle is no longer raining or cloudy. It and neighboring cities like Bellevue, Redmond, Issaquah, Sammamish have 'the' best weather, homes and social life. The PNW is gorgeous!
What made you finally decide to work in a startup out of college, despite all these great big tech offers though? What are the key factors that we should consider when making such a decision?
at startups there's alot of problems & systems design to be done - big tech is very hierarchical at startups you have more ownership & iterations greenfield projects mean bleeding edge tech they're receptive to juniors sometimes you get to see the product evolve - squeezing experience in a short time opportunity to learn business & what it takes to build one better to join later stage startups try it for first 2yrs
@@SacredCASHcow Thanks, yeah I know about Taro, I was just curious about his thought process when he chose working at Kosei right out of college despite having all these lucrative offers. Cus there are a lot of things to consider not just from career/growth/learnings perspective but also the other aspects like stability/WLB/brand etc. Was just wondering if there was any specific factor which made him choose the startup to work for rather than big tech, right out of college.
Got the answer as part of another comment thread anyway, just quoting the answer by Rahul here in case anyone else is also interested. "I was part of a research lab during my last year at Stanford (The InfoLab), and the work we were doing turned into a startup which I decided to join. It was a hard decision, but my thinking at the time was that the big companies would still be around, but being a founding engineer at a Stanford-backed startup is probably not easy to find."
I understand that comp is a touchy subject for people, but your take on the subject was amazing and please continue picking up such topics. I came from a non-CS background (mech engineering) and had a few CS friends who joined big tech. They were actually open about their comps and it completely changed my perspective on my career. Instead of being jealous of them it actually motivated me to work 14 hour days to crack big tech interviews and I did crack them. Looking back I am super grateful to them and feel lucky to get a perspective outside of my engineering field. I hope your video does the same for others!
Before all this, step one is to get into Stanford and ace your Data Structures and Algorithms course. Stanford is not so important as your Data Structures and Algorithms problem solving skills. So whoever is feeling bad about not getting compensated close to these numbers, just keep practicing those skills. Anyone can be good at them
@Rahul, can you also follow up on how you evaluated these offers? As a new grad nothing can go majorly wrong with these companies, but I'm curious how do u go about making these choices as u progress through ur career :)
Very valuable video! I’d like to add that interviewing at big tech companies helps identifying our weaknesses and getting better at interviewing. I just finished interviewing with Google (didn’t get an offer but made it to on-site on the first try) and learnt a lot. Would you mind making a video about the back and forth game of negotiation and specifically how to phrase things?
You want to go to Seattle because no state tax and lower cost if living then the bay area. Bug then again when you had these offers bay area was still hype.
absolute true. I've got better TC and stock option etc, but I'm on sr. position now. And all things covered in the video (build your brand, get friends and perform well) are the only ways to make yourself valuable and better from employer perspective. But the main thing is - money isn't everything, you have to grow internally (and not to get into more troubles in the process), when you grow - your performance grows substantially. That's just how it works actually ).
It is depressing if you are not in US. You'd never get these kind of offers in EU. Yes FAANG will give you probably 100% more TC than any regular company but we are still talking like $150-200k for L5, while the competition to get in and the amount of efforts it takes is huge.
Those are some insane offers! If I remeber correctly, you didn't take any of them and instead worked at a startup that got acquired by Pinterest. Why did you go this route, and what was the outcome (from a career, money, and/or personal growth perspective)? If you could go back and make the decision again, would you have done the same thing?
Mainly it was regret minimization. The startup was founded by the professor I was doing research with in unversity, which felt like a really unique opportunity, while these larger companies would always be there. That was my thinking at the time, but actually I feel like I would have done just as well (financially + learning) by going to a larger company.
new grad here, this was very aspiring, im a little disheartened lately with the talk about the hiring freezes going on with a lot of tech companies as of late, but i hope i can land some offers like you did in the past. thank you!
I was part of a research lab during my last year at Stanford (The InfoLab), and the work we were doing turned into a startup which I decided to join. It was a hard decision, but my thinking at the time was that the big companies would still be around, but being a founding engineer at a Stanford-backed startup is probably not easy to find.
As someone who is new to all of these terms. can you explain what is: Equity? sign on? and bonus? I'm an immigrant. Don't know these things. sorry if this question is naive.
This is really helpful info Rahul. Thank you for sharing! aside/fwiw, no one wants a cautionary tale, but just for sake of a more complete picture, sometimes stock doesn't go up... and some tech companies go bust (that means $0 if you are lucky... for some folks early in the aughts, depending on how/when they exercised their options, I heard that meant $0, AND a large tax bill). Given the complexity around total compensation particularly involving options, any light shined on this might help others avoid a misstep. Regardless, love your channel. Thanks again!
In the end then how do you actually evaluate multiple tech offers when such a large component is unpredictable equity grants. The difference in value can be massive depending on company performance.
Is your scenario analysis based on selling immediately when you can? Or is it based on 2022 price? If it's based on 2022 prices, you should do it s.t. you sell immediately as your RSUs vest.
SIR PLEASE GUIDE US HOW TO STUDY PROPERLY IN COLLEGE AND HOW TO GET INTERNSHIPS AND PLACEMENT OFFERS FROM BIG TECH COMPANIES..... PLEASE PROVIDE YOUR ROADMAP
I think the number one way to get the initial interviews is being a TA for an intro to programming/ data structures course at your school, and doing a couple of projects. Then study and do leetcode problems and pass the interviews, after having an internship under your belt after sophomore year, the summer after junior year you can get into the top companies.
i’m 21 making 150k as a software engineer. no college education or anything. just self taught and online courses, the only think i’m not happy about my job was not getting a sign bonus but is alright. i’ll get it later for sure. i’m just trying to say, anyone can make it
Thank you for your videos! When I was a new grad in 2018 I was lucky enough to get interviews at companies like Google, Uber, Snap, etc. But I was inexperienced and undisciplined and wasn't able to get offers from these top companies. Now I have another chance with a Google interview coming up and I'm watching your videos to see what it takes to get accepted, would love to see a video about how to prepare for and pass these technical interviews!
Completely unrelated to the topic of the video: given that you’ve spent some time working on mobile, what are your thoughts on react native vs native development? Assuming you have the time and resources to learn and implement both, is it worth building each app natively (each being, one for iOS and Android) or is likely not worth the additional time? Speaking from an individual developer’s pov rather than a big company (who’d likely have the resources to build both)
Microsoft lowballs hard!! Why do you think that is? They are in Big Tech, and their interviews are hard. And I would argue they are less prestigious than Google and Meta (and even other FAANG adjacent companies like Uber and Airbnb)
I agree, a bar chart would have been better. I initially wanted to show the growth over multiple points in time, but that made the video longer, so I reduced it to 2, but at that point a stacked bar chart would have been better.
Congrats on the solid comp! However, I think calling this "$1M+ Compensation" is clickbait. I mean, it's "kinda sorta" true. If that's how you're calculating compensation, then everyone else (including those who don't get RSUs and only invest in index funds) would need to retroactively include market growth in their compensation numbers as well, making the $1M figure less shocking. Those years were quite lucrative for the entire market.
Hey Rahul, just an interesting question here - What was it like working alongside Jure Leskovec in the early stage start up you had joined while at Stanford? Were you friends/familiar with him, and what was your impression of working with him at the time? - Coming from a LinkedIn engineer
I worked in his lab during my 5th year at Stanford, so I interacted with him a good amount. I also had taken several classes with him at that point. In general, following the smartest people in your network won't lead to a bad career outcome. That was my logic for joining Jure's startup after graduation.
When you negotiating a higher compensation with HR, do you send them your offer letters from other companies in your email to HR to prove you have competing bids for full time work? Thank you.
You are not required to, but I always do when negotiating. Recruiters and HR in large corporations are very aware of what their competitions are offering so would know if you're fudging the numbers anyway. Also, most HR know to start koe because the expectation is that you'll negotiate.
I dont even understand whats the point of this video in 2022. What woould I do with the information of compensation from 2014? People just making clickbait videos for no reason at all.
Well, these figures are mind-boggling for even someone with 10+ yrs of exp today. Is there any hope for guys hitting 40s and thinking of learning to code?
It's definitely possible, it just requires leverage. Leverage comes from having multiple offers, which is harder to do in this environment but still very much possible.
it'd be interesting to see how those equity offers would fare in a bear market. I don't think we'll see a stock market run like we saw over the past decade again for a long time
Hi, how could you have been rejected 3 times by Microsoft if you graduated from few months?? I don’t get it; usually you should wait at least 6 month or 1 year if you don’t pass the interview
There are massive differences in compensation based on the field, company, and location. It helps to be aware just so you know how/if you want to update your career
depends very much on the person (e.g. if you want to buy a house in the Bay Area or go somewhere else). I'd say $15M liquid net is what most people would agree on.

This shows how super talent you are. Not everyone gets offers like these. A single offer from FAANG itself is super hard.
Its not just talent. Its about drive-

curious what networth$ does a typical silicon valley engineer consider "F u" money? $10M? $20M? $30M+?
