After reading some of these posts(mostly relating to sde) I noticed my salary was a lot less than them. I'm a level 60 consultant with a base salary of 91400. Been with msft for a year and a half and looking at a promotion but now I'm just a little concerned. Is there a difference between roles base salary?
The fact that you are asking this question demonstrates why there are salary differences between roles.
Maybe I should have clarified, between roles as well as levels. but as far as numbers go, the ranges should be similar between levels according to what I've read. but my range seems low compared to what I've seen here. So could a level 60 consultant have different ranges than developers of that level? I could be misinterpreting what I'm reading and was reaching out to a community who might have better insight and info.
Yes - same level but different role have different salaries. Tech roles are highest paid at tech companies
🤔
You’re underpaid. From the business side of things, that’s a feature, not a bug. Corporations profit when there are information gaps. Obscuring the pay among staff is just another information gap they can use to profit.
I’m level 60 business side fte and my base is 94k. I believe every level bump adds another $10k to your base.
Duh
Yes..... there's different categories and scales depending on the disciplines. In general they're grouped into engineering, sales, marketing, finance/hr. Engineers tend to have the highest base given equal level and time in service. Sales obviously had different quota based incentives.
Of course it is!
