Square offer

Question

I have a verbal offer(do not have numbers yet) from Square for a Senior Software Engineer. I want to understand how the benefits are at Square and how does the unlimited PTO thing work out for you.

How are the stock refreshers and how is stock tank being taken care of by SQ for the employees. Do they give additional refreshers or cash to compensate for stock tanking?

Block (formerly known as Square) took care of stock drop pretty well at least from my perspective. A new pay cycle starts on 4/1 at Block and the firm has compensated the loss of drop in RSU value by giving out additional stocks. These new stocks are vested quarterly starting from 4/1 for four years.

FYI, the L5 position at Amazon is not a senior SDE position, L6 is. May want to clarify in your post.

I had a similar situation and I opted for Amazon simply because of higher numbers. Square may provide better culture but usually gives  low-ball offers.
