Honestly, I make 300k TC and joined one company out of college and stayed there for the last 4 years. I live in Seattle.

I just want to show that not everyone making > 200k switches companies every 2 years trying to minmax.



How much of that is from your stock that you got 4 years ago vesting while the market has gone up? Or is your newly infused grants and cash 300?


That's both currently the amount I am getting per year towards my bank account and the amount I'm being granted per year * 4 + cash (I got promoted ~a year ago, meaning my new grants though missing the time value have a higher dollar value at grant time)


The argument is money isn’t everything.

You left after the 4 year cliff. That’s hardly an argument against keeping the same or higher TC though.


Actually I'm still there :-) Nothing against people trying to move and make more, but I just want to let people know that you don't _have_ to do that to be successful (plus refute people that might claim that it's the only way to do so in tech)
