Data Analytics software company, non-faang, principal role.. actual moving costs up to 35k USD$ and stipend for first 3 months for housing / food / misc expenses. ( This was 3+ years ago.) Be cautious of reimburse vs sign on bonus. One is taxable as income.
> I think moving costs are a given.
Not necessarily. They’re reasonably common, but not so much that you can assume you’ll be offered one.
Job that brought me to Japan provided: visa support; flights for myself and my spouse to Japan, plus a $1000 misc moving bonus which we used for the dog’s cargo fee; door-to-door moving service including packing; shipping by boat (we had a 15,000lb allowance and used 5,000); and a housing stipend.
