did you try negotiating

#

if you play it right you could get an uplevel and have them beat bb

#

don't think bb negotiates?

#

ah

#

honestly

#

negotiate bb first

#

then negotiate microsoft with higher bb

#

you can only negotiate once for msft

#

but you can get like max 250k y1/y2

#

u need extra approvals but the highest u can get is like

#

120 base for redmond 130 for bay + 100k bonus over two years + 175k stock?

#

outlook has people in nyc ^

dim nimbus

idk never saw that someone getting at l60

empty oxide
#

which is fully up to your manager

#

i have the internal levels/pay guidelines lol

#

its possible just very rare

dim nimbus
#

even in this market ?

#

maybe time to boomerang lol - i'll apply to msft rn

#

lol

empty oxide
#

i think a large part is interview performance

#

or intern performance

dim nimbus
#

intern maybe i got new grad in 2021

real jolt
#

Bb gaps Microsoft

empty oxide
#

what did you take over it

real jolt
#

microsoft is rest and vest central

empty oxide
#

msft has better promo velocity than bb since bb doesn't have levels lol

real jolt
empty oxide
#

why look at bb

empty oxide
#

if you’re going to take an unsized risk and work more, make it worthwhile

#

make it either worth the potential return (startups) or velocity but don’t sacrifice both for “better work” and more hours 💀

empty oxide
#

???

#

have you ever heard work smart not hard

#

you’re working stupid by doing that, it doesn’t take 8 hours a day strictly to become a better engineer

#

it takes milestones, experience across the stack, moving fast, etc

#

if you can get done in 30 hours what others can do in 60 does that mean you’re not doing enough work?

#

you also just completely missed my last comment lol

empty oxide
#

this is such a hot take

#

this is not a take that will get you promoted into management and it will get you burnt out

#

if you’re working smart and doing 60 hours a week of work you’re going to exceed expectations

#

there are ways to work efficiently, chill, and be on a high velocity track and it doesn’t seem to you that that exists

#

if you’re going to work 60 hours a week you might as well get the agency to take ownership of your work at an early stage startup

empty oxide
#

what

#

your argument is completely off topic and not related lmao

#

i said it's in your best interest to work efficiently which means doing your work quickly and well lmao

empty oxide
#

where do you get that

#

you can exceed expectations by pre-planning what you need to exceed and build that into how you think about your work?

#

on long projects exceeding expectations isn't rocket science or hard to pre-plan

real jolt
#

I was joking

#

Idk where gridshot came from
