This is now happening and the pay is above Berlin sr eng levels. For senior engineers, I’m hearing Doordash is paying €120-150K/year total comp in Berlin (€90-110K base salary, $130-210K stock over 4 years). Hello competition! t.co/pWpdln67wR

For context: it was very, very hard for a senior engineer to break the €100K “glass ceiling” in Berlin. Companies like Zalando/similar ones pay €85K/yr in salary. No equity. Doordash just doubled this. Source: people saying thanks for this early tip who accepted DD offers.

Glad this person paid attention - and so are they. When you’re early and few people know about some companies, and you suspect it’s a company with a larger than usual compensation package: it’s easier to get an offer than when everyone already knows about them. t.co/Aq5h2aLoi0
