I don't know about all of FAANG and about recent policies, but last I checked, Facebook and Google adjust your pay based on location. Even if you start in the USA and transfer to another office you'd take a pay cut.

As far as I know they still pay more than average for the area, but you wouldn't keep your USA salary.

I don't think they'd rescind a stock grant though, so if you transferred after 2 years you could get two years of american RSU while in the EU.

Facebook does rescind their stock grant.

Transferring to EU isn't really that "easy" within the companies especially as a new hire.
