L4 6yoe 260k. Been at Google for 2 years. Expecting promo next year (probably an increase to around 300k) but wanted to shop around. Any companies that can pay 400k+ for my level/yoe? I know FB (e5 with competing), snap, JS, 2s, and Citadel can do it. Not sure what else
Also, google
Apple can definitely do it, but not sure if they have an office in NYC.
A friend of mine moved from CA to NYC

Worried that our top performer is an attrition risk. How do managers handle this?

Avoid teams with only Chinese or Indians especially with a Chinese/Indian manager
If you lean into trading firms more, you'll find plenty to match that. Try HRT and PDT. Also look at openings Jump has in the NYC area. Consider hitting up a few finance-focused headhunters. $400k is at or slightly above SWE new grad at a lot of the top trading firms in the NYC area. You'll likely be offered about $400 - 500k for the first year while they see how to calibrate your 6 YOE internally, since you haven't worked in finance before. From there your TC will either grow steadily or rapidly depending on your performance.
I’m okay with either finance or tech, but for something way out of band like that there tends to be more finance firms. Also the finance firms should be well respected in tech as well (not like some random startup trading firm) so that I can always move back to tech if it doesnt work out in the end. But thx for hrt and pdt. Will put them in my list as well.
Consider Jump as well. I recently switched from tech. Had offers from Citadel, HRT, PDT, Headlands, Jump and chose Jump.
