Jacked = lots of muscle

shredded = very little fat

autumn ridge
#

i mean they are kind of synonms

calm shale

theyre not

that definition is true

sonic coral

so shredded = skinny

nah smitty right

but I agree shredded implies lower bf then jacked

Depends on where you go to school but it’s facts on average. This discord will give you an incredibly warped perception of average CS grads lol. The median new grad CS salary is 74k. That means half of people make less than that.

After seeing so many bb em rejects I am now super stressed out

formal fable
#

What's your opinion on the usual stock components vs fully cash compensations? Which one's better and why?

late kestrel
#

if the stock tanks you potentially lose half your TC and your job

#

more stock = more eggs in one basket. but if you believe in the company/product it may be a good investment

#

fully depends on your risk tolerance

rain patio
#

cant you buy the stock with the cash

#

unless you get discount as a perk

runic wind
#

Stock is better

formal fable
rain patio
#

wait no u get discount when you buy with cash too at a lot of places

runic wind
#

Usually grants are for 4 years

#

So upside is insane

#

Downside is limited since if the stock drops too much, you can just change jobs

formal fable
runic wind
#

No, you most likely can't invest in 4yrs worth of grant

#

It's like someone is promising you 4yrs of stocks
But you have the option to leave if things go south

sonic coral

#

doesnt it depend on company

runic wind

I mean
Every FAANG company has grown like crazy for the last few years

rain patio
#

some give you fixed units and others give set $$$ per year

runic wind

Yeah FAANG usually gives you fixed units

Set $ is stupid imo, then cash is better

#

OK. I have, however, never seen grants mentioned in any company's TC so far. Can someone give examples of recent offers with grants and their schedule?

runic wind
sonic coral
#

Googles vesting schedule is 33/33/22/12

runic wind
#

So you get a 4yr grant that has a fixed current dollar amount

So if that's 400K, you'll get a grant of 400K/current goog price # of units

sonic coral
#

It’s based on start date

runic wind
#

Yes, but after that it's fixed

sonic coral
#

Well yes but when you said “units vs dollar amount” I assumed you meant in terms of the offer

runic wind
#

I'm talking about the 4 yr upside

formal fable
#

If you're getting fixed stock units at the beginning, across 4 years, assuming the company grows, your stock values will grow as well right? So just like the grant, 400k worth stocks in the beginning should grow to 800k, right?

runic wind
#

It's converted to a fixed number of RSUs after you start.

IF your investments go down, well

In non recessions big tech rsus are next best

runic wind
#

Yeah, but the grants are in the future

sonic coral
#

But in a recession oof

runic wind
#

You can leave

#

And get new grants at a new company

#

You can't do that with your investments lmao

runic wind
formal fable
sonic coral
formal fable
#

I still don't get why cash isn't just the most flexible and theoretically optimal option.

#

Apart from that grants situation

sonic coral
#

It’s just that previously big public tech rsus were the next best thing

#

And people said they are “basically cash”

wheat seal
#

Only company that does all cash is bloomberg hft and Netflix right

foggy perch
#

does palantir give stock?

#

I thought palantir was all cash but maybe i'm wrong

sonic coral
#

It still is basically cash except the cash amount is lower when stock is lower rn so it’s up to you if you want less tc or just hold and hope it goes up again

runic wind
formal fable
#

I'm guessing folks saw stock options as a risk free, Easy alternative to investing themselves since company valuation could be trusted more than one's investment portfolio and they thought, stock >> cash. But if you were to invest wisely (hypothetically), you can always beat stock

foggy perch
#

aight nvm palantir has a lot of stock

Since you need to pay to exercise them

U can actually do that?

#

Or is it when they ipo

sonic coral
# wheat seal So u can convert to cash?

Well it depends on your stock option agreement, some allow you to exercise prior to ipo, others only allow you to do it after ipo, there’s also companies that will give you a loan to exercise your options if you don’t have the capital

sonic coral
#

But imo options are objectively worse than rsus since with RSUs of stock goes down you still get cash just less but with options you get nothing effectively if it goes below the original price

wheat seal
#

With options u should be joining company in hopes that ur options will be worth millions eventually, no?

#

Otherwise I don’t see point

sonic coral
#

Well yes but there’s also nothing stopping the startup from giving rsus

rain patio
#

aka hypergrowth startups

sonic coral
#

Like stripe always gave rsus from the beginning

wheat seal

No

So you lost 50K!

sonic coral

Since stock options for a hyper growth startup is basically paper

#

Like you’re basically banking on the startup going big

#

new grads not so much KEKW

#

at a lot of cos including big tech, execs are given options for this specific reason

Gotta read up on this cryptic BS. Almost as if these pay structures are designed to fool/manipulate you

4yr grants are great, to be specific

sonic coral

1yr grants are not

ig it depends on how risk averse you are KEKW

i feel like those people aren't in it for the money at that point

runic wind
#

i think they are, lol

rain patio
#

really

#

dont options make up a big part of comp

bronze nymph
#

lots of them are, some are maybe just looking for more ownership

rain patio
#

if the IPO is ass u just get fucked right

wheat seal
bronze nymph
#

they do yea, but any good startup will also give you a decent amount of cash

bronze nymph

#

oh prob not purely no, some are some aren't it depends

#

i don't know what they're thinking, but i'd assume it's like a glorified lottery to at least a good chunk of them

a lottery that takes multiple years of your life craughing

oh true

wheat seal
#

Afresh has a lot of ex google swe, twilio. Pretty strong engineering team

#

can you buy options on equityzen? or is it just RSUs

wheat seal
#

Usually it’s a small number of ppl at startup. What do u mean dilution?

#

Don’t u keep same percentage of stock though

#

Everyone’s pay isn’t decreased

  1. become an angel investor
  2. buy options from every startup
