do internally promoted L4s also get 380k as per levels.fyi? Or is internal a lot lower?
Was told expectations within a year for MLE to go from L3->;L4, not sure how realistic that is given posts on blind seem to indicate promos take a long time. Have other mid-level offers but snap L4 would easily beat them if I could get there quick. #snap #snapchat #engineering
Hey all, recently joined Snap as an L3 hire and was told I’m on the higher end of the L3 scope. Want to get promoted to L4 as quickly as possible for career growth and 💰. Is a 1-2 year timeline a realistic expectation for this type of promo? Also, what helps an engineer go from L3 to L4? new TC: ...Read more
How does it work? And tbe overall perf cycle generally? Usual timeline from L3 to L4 (equivalent to L4 to L5 elsewhere) etc Particularly interested to hear comparisons with Google (heavyweight, slower) and FB (fast) TC: 400k
Coming into snap as a ‘top end’ L4 (as said by HM and recruiter, 4yoe). People say it’s hard to promo to L5 but Snap recently reworked bands to make L5 consistent with FANG senior instead of high senior - low principal. Is it realistic to get promoted within a year or 1.5 years if I preform well? #s...Read more
I have an offer from Snap for L3 level. I still don’t have the numbers, just got an email from the recruiter saying the offer was approved, but I’m expecting ~200k TC. I have a final round with Google in a week as well and the recruiter said since I have a Masters they’re targeting L4. I know googl...Read more
I have a great L3 offer from Snap, but I'm not sure if the team is in an area I see myself working long-term. How hard would it be to internally transfer to another team after a year or two? I'd ideally like to work on an ML, product, or data infra team. Also, how difficult are L3->;L4 and L4->
Hey all, I got a Snap offer for new grad TC 178 (125+53 no guaranteed bonus). I was wondering if any of you have any negotiating tips (im a return intern with 1 year of experience as an intern and 1 year of experience working with a startup during college) as the offer is kinda low (I sound like an ...Read more
Based on TC it sure looks like Snap E5 is E6 level of Facebook. But what about the scope of work, influence, and in general, the day to day job as E5 at Snap? #tech #facebook #snap
Currently L4 at Snap, TC 250k. After the announced stock top up, TC will be back to about 350k. Promotion to L5 at Snap would be about 530k TC (300k of which would be RSUs). This definitely seems out of band for Google but then again I'm not sure how to weigh Snap stock in this climate. If Snap has ...Read more
Is there a time limit within which you have to get promoted from L4 (like fb)? I'm the only person on this board who doesn't want to get promoted, thus could not find the answer to this question. Would like to stay at L4 if I joined Snap. Please advise Snap people. Need to make a decision soon. Than...Read more
Are there yearly refreshers and base salary increases? How are the annual bonuses?
I recently accepted a down level (and sort of lowball) offer from Google in a LCOL location, but now snap has come back with an offer that’s 70% higher in HCOL area and I’m not sure if I should take it? Both teams are fairly similar. Any insights from G or Snap folks is really appreciated. Overall ...Read more
Looking to decide between these (or stay at Snap for chance of L6 promo) Grinded super hard for a couple of months and managed to get these aligned. Some numbers fudged for anonymity. Not all have been negotiated, so there’s some wiggle room. Leaning towards Notion or Snowflake for the growth pote...Read more
Got verbal offer for L4 Snap London. Going to negotiate numbers soon. Currently being considered for Associate at Goldman. WLB at GS team is great. So I heard. Haven’t heard good things about promo @ Snap London. Heard it’s filled with ex Amazonains and stack ranking could be present... aka PIP Cu...Read more
Apple current TC ~400 with refreshers, not likely to get higher than 450k. 8 YOE. Good team at Apple, good WLB. Promo path 3-4 years. Snap offer seems like a good infra team in LA.
Currently L6 at Amazon. TC $310k. 10YOE. Not software. Got a L4 offer from Snap, 20% higher than my current comp at Amazon. Should I take this down-level offer from Snap? My interview performance was admittedly not the best. No way to negotiate for L5 now. Pros: 1. 20% higher TC 2. New technology...Read more
Got an L4 offer from Snap with a TC of 420. Currently Senior at LinkedIn with a TC of 380k and I will touch the cliff very soon with a TC of 250k. I have 10 yoe and my staff promo might happen in a years time. Snap L4 is a good offer and I am super bullish about the company. However I am interested...Read more
Friends at Snap, is it really difficult to be promoted at Snap? I’m considering an EM offer from Snap, but keep hearing promo at Snap is very hard. What’s the average time from L6 to L7? Old Tc: 430k, new 680k
I have seen this happen way too often at lot of companies including Meta, Snap but this seems to be quite prominent at Google. Decent take below:- https://twitter.com/petergyang/status/1576985038511448064/photo/1 #google #meta #snap #amazon #promo
