Asking on behalf of a friend: How much should one ask as a Sr. Software Engineer at FB with 12YOE with regards to base pay, joining bonus, stocks etc. Also, which level it would be?(L4,L5 or L6) Currently at Walmart Labs, L4, TC- 200K
E5 is what you should aim for, your chances are pretty low though given you are L4 now @12 yoe. But who knows?...
Walmart Labs are low ballers. He wasn't aware of what exactly he was worth all this while. An exceptionally talented guy, plus circumstances had been different all this while, with consulting and contract positions. Walmart was his first FT role, so hoping to get better from here.
He as in you? Lol no one would be so helpful and interested in career change for their “friend”
What does L4 at Walmart lab mean?
Senior software engineer Staff S/W Engineer is next at L5 I guess.
Base will be like 180k, 15% target bonus, shoot for 300-350k TC. Get competing offers for sure
