Shared salary spreadsheet reveals Microsoft employee earnings for a second year

I was under the impression that your TC stays similar as you get rolling RSU grants

I got unlucky and ended up on a particularly bad team, so I left before I could get any firsthand experience with it. It's weird if it works that way, though, since it's so easy to jump ship to another company and get way more money.. Microsoft's interview process is as hard as pretty much any other high end company (except maybe Google, which seems to expect you to grind on leetcode a lot more..)

Yes, my signing bonus is spread out over the first 4 years, so my TC will not go down until at least year 5, by that point I'd expect promotions/bonuses to cover the gap, or more likely I'll have moved on to a different company (nothing against msft, just not trying to stay in one place for too long)
