L4 Google -> 45 interviews, 5 offers, AMA
Interviewed for IC4, panel didn’t approve me for that level. Keep in mind this is Canada, so the salaries here are stupid low when compared to Bay Area or US HCOL TCs Completed some interviews. Meta, Twilio and a few others are yet to be scheduled for on-site. So far I have offers from Wayfair and Snowflake. Here it goes: Wayfair: breakup is a bit unknown but the TC is $440k CAD Snowflake: TC = $407k CAD Base: 180k Bonus: 15% RSU: $640k USD/4yrs I’m a little hesitant about joining Wayfair bc of the WLB. Snowflake has better WLB and better people (got the vibe from the interviews) 9 YOE #engineering #software #swe #canada #backend #distributedsystems
I know salaries in Canada are lower than the US, and that bashing Canada is the national sport of the Republic of Blind, but calling a 440K TC “stupid low” is… interesting.
National sport lmao. But when I look at similar TCs at IC3 or IC4, they’re way higher in the US. It’s just that the Canada market isn’t hot enough…but it’s changing for sure!
It is low because it's cad and you will only get 46% of it over 220
Btw, these numbers are sooo good for Canada. Not at all bad
How many yoe do you have?
9
Holy crap that is a huge offer for Canada.
Yes, it is indeed! Going by the trend at Shopify, I was very disheartened. Glad I didn’t continue with them
Yes they hate people who work for money lol
Recently got contacted by their recruiter for the Toronto office. Unfortunately they don't have permanent remote.
Yeah that’s a concern for sure. From what I heard you don’t have to be in the office every day. Although it’ll depend on the team arrangement
The recruiter told me when it's time to RTO, you are expected to be in office 4 days a week.
Nice offers, congrats! It’s so good to see more ppl in Canada are getting better comps, and hope the gap will be closing even further.
Thank you! And I’m glad Canada market is catching up to Bay Area comp
400k cad for 9yoe is not even close to bay area. Bay area would be 600k+
Great offer for Canada! Would you mind sharing the interview process for snowflake?
1. Recruiter screen 2. Phone screen — coding LC Med 3. On-site coding — LC hard 4. On-site systemdesign deep dive 5. On-site tooling systems and past projects deep dive 6. Hiring manager — team fitment, role scope etc
Are those positions remote?
No
Guessing this is IC3?
Yes, you’re right
Interesting, I recently spoke to the recruiter from Snowflake. Pretty poor experience, he was very arrogant. He told me that IC3 range is around 250K CAD total with around 130 base.
Oh snowflake recently started hiring right?its pretty cool, they have quite high salaries
