woven shell
#

155k base
23k perf bonus

restive tinsel
#

Signing? Relocation?

No stocks, right? Priv company?

woven shell
#

oh yeah no stocks

#

10k relocation with 7days of temp housing

#

4weeks paid vacation, unlimited sick days

#

they didnt mention a signing bonus but said they could raise the bonus

mossy whale
#

They need compete offers to add signon bonus

civic moon
#

how was final?

#

and when did u hear back

umbral dune
#

Whats the location?

woven shell
#

NYC

#

final was basically talking about some of my internship projects with a senior manager

umbral dune
#

is 155k good enough for NYC WazowskiStare

woven shell
#

had final on friday got offer this morning

woven shell
#

other nyc based companies (quant excluded ofc) seem to give around 140-155k base

#

but bloomberg no stock or signon for their initial offer is something to keep in mind

torpid ginkgo
#

Any idea if remote is a possibility?

umbral dune
#

no signon is just being plain cheap

woven shell
#

didnt ask about remote since i would like to move to a diff city

#

bloomberg is trying to push for hybrid so i think getting remote would be a challenge

trim haven
#

look up the average income in nyc

umbral dune
#

Dont compare myself with peasants

woven shell
#

i assumed they meant in comparison to other nyc companies

#

what 💀

umbral dune
trim haven
#

at least one time per wee

#

k

torpid ginkgo
woven shell
#

yeah now theyre saying 3 in office 2 remote

umbral dune
#

do they have an office in austin?

trim haven
#

in my team everyone came in once a week

woven shell
#

i mean bloomberg “policy” but who is checking tbh

#

ya

frail loom
#

Holy nico your process was fast af

#

Didn’t you apply in September

woven shell
#

Yeah

#

Sept 2 at like midnight lol

frail loom
#

Sheeesh

torpid ginkgo
#

bruh they only had onsite availability like a month after phone lol

frail loom
torpid ginkgo
#

for me at least

woven shell
#

two weeks from application to final

torpid ginkgo
#

they must really like you

woven shell
#

but i had my entire interview process last week

frail loom
#

Would you take over microsoft or Uber

#

So far based on exp

umbral dune
#

uber if you are feeling brave KEKW

woven shell
#

I had my first day at Uber today xD

#

system is down for new hires bc ya know lol

frail loom
#

OH LOL

#

I wasn’t paying attention about that Uber stuff

woven shell
#

Microsoft I didnt like project all that much but enjoyed seattle and the people

frail loom
#

And then I remembered seeing it

#

Some breach right

#

Major one

woven shell
#

kek yeah

frail loom
#

U have to return to same team?

#

4 msft

woven shell
#

Microsoft I am prob gonna take tho

#

same team not guaranteed

#

same org yes

#

will probably just be under my skip tho

trim haven
#

isnt microsoft comp kinda bad tho

thick shoal
#

How should I prep for the virtual on-site? Just Bloomberg tagged?

woven shell
#

i mean my msft offer is 👻 which is more than Bloomberg

woven shell
trim haven
#

i c

woven shell
#

sorta standard offer most msft returners are getting now bc they've suddenyl tightened the budget

#

maybe +10k on stock

fast axle
mossy whale
#

Comparing the tax and cost of living in Seattle to NYC, msft is better than Bloomberg

woven shell
fast axle
#

oohh. makes sense!

thick shoal
#

Do yk if NYC and Princeton comps are the same

woven shell
trim haven
#

if you negotiate you'll at least get a signing bonus

#

for returning interns it's 208k FY TC

wraith locust
#

bloomberg can have up to 75k signon after competing (from someone I know)

trim haven
#

yea lol

woven shell
#

the offers are about the same on paper but nyc COL higher

frail loom
woven shell
#

i still dunno if I would take bloomberg over msft is i could get that

frail loom
#

Even then I think after Living in both Seattle and nyc

#

Seattle is nyc lite

#

In terms of being a city

trim haven
wraith locust
#

if you mean 213 is the upper cap of comp

frail loom
#

The progression for both companies is also rather slow

#

All cash is also nice too, at bloomy

#

Can just invest the would be stock into other stuff

woven shell
#

msft offer expires wednesday :O

#

bloomberg said if I negotiate, I'd have 24 hours to accept afterwards lol

quiet garden
frail loom
#

Worth trying

#

If they beat the offer significantly

#

Seems like ur set on msft

#

But who knows

woven shell
#

would help the other people going through the process too

quiet garden
#

Yeah agreed.

#

I have my Vo on Thursday and have done top 60-70 lc tagged. Do I prepare system design or other different type of questions for these 2 days just o be fully prepared?

#

like other than LC

woven shell
#

I did maybe the top 10 tagged question on LC and the questions from the bot (search !problems Bloomberg in this server) and that was more than enough. There's a slight chance on the final you get asked system design but not likely to get sys design for new grad

quiet garden
#

Yeah I have heard chances of getting OOD, like designing class and functions

woven shell
# frail loom Seems like ur set on msft

yeah i do like msft plus some other people i know would be in seattle so would be fun to have people I know when starting out. Not so sure how much i like NYC rn. Still gonna look around at other companies tho but I'm getting tired of LC and searching plus hiring freezes :c

#

And then I’m free

woven shell
#

bloomberg imo had the chillest process of any company I have interviewed with

civic moon
#

was ur process fasttracked?

woven shell
#

yes

#

c:

thick shoal
#

@woven shell VO was 3 rounds right (2 tech, 1 behavioral)?

woven shell
#

yeah

#

tech interviews are 1 hr each

#

behavioral was 30min

woven shell
frail loom
#

Yeah I’m only doing interviews so I can say I got the best offer possible from google

#

I loved my team

#

And the work I did

woven shell
#

nice nice nice

restive tinsel
#

155 base is pretty good in nyc

#

if it was 155k tc then maybe not

#

but performance and other related bonuses

#

tops you off near 200k anyways

slow solstice
#

@woven shell how much time did they give you to accept the offer?

woven shell
slow solstice
#

thanks!

#

congrats on the offer!

robust trail
#
