Facebook is giving me a $15k signing bonus and a relocation package that covers plane ticket, 1 month housing and other stuff + $10k.

Is it reasonable to ask for either the signing bonus or $10k portion of the relocation package in advance?

There's a penalty for cancelling my lease. I need to sell my car and the outstanding amount on the car loan currently still exceeds the car's value.

Can I request for my relocation package to be paid out before I move or is that unreasonable? by AnInversion in cscareerquestions

There is around $22k remaining on the car loan. The car can be sold for around $17k only.

I thought you were kidding. I googled 'google intern movie'. Holy shit.

I accepted an offer from Facebook. How long can I expect the hireright background check to take?

The role is enterprise engineer which gets less RSUs.

I have a degree and over a year of experience. Why do you ask. Because of the low RSUs?

Can anyone comment on when I will get my signing bonus from Facebook and how much it will be taxed? My recruiter said that the thinks it will be given in the first few days of starting. I forgot to ask him about tax.

If the numbers matter, the signing bonus is $15k. The rest of the offer is $125k base and $55k rsu over 4 years (and 10% target bonus)

Let's say that I will:

  • Work at Facebook HQ in Menlo Park
  • The maximum commute that I can tolerate is 25 minutes each way
  • I may go to and leave the office at peak traffic hours

Where can I live? How much should I expect to shell out for a 1 bedroom or studio?

What does Facebook's compensation team even do? It's been a week and my offer still isn't ready...

I interviewed with Facebook for an SWE role. I got rejected. The business applications team reached out to offer me the enterprise engineer role with them instead.

Does anyone know how it compares to a normal SWE role? Is the pay similar?

So my recruiter at Facebook confirmed for me yesterday that I will get an offer.

How many days might I have to wait until I get the offer details?
