What number should I expect for a L5 DS analytics role at block? Have other competing offers, want to understand what is the maximum block can offer to inform the negotiation strategy. TC: 300k with meta stock ATH #data #dataanalytics #datascience #block
Recruiter mentioned around 250K for L5. What’s your level at Meta and why are you interested in leaving?
Is 250k high end of the range? I’m Ic4 at meta and looking for better wlb
That’s high end and there wasn’t much flexibility. It’s not going to match your IC4 TC and wouldn’t be anywhere close to an IC5 TC if you’re up for promo. Have you considered switching teams for better wlb?
YOE?
Think $220-250k range for analytics. Which role is this on blocks page if you don’t mind me asking? Assuming it won’t hurt since you’ve finished the rounds. I don’t see many roles open there
How bad is wlb at meta?
50 hr per week + mental stress
Weekend work?
Block DS pay is weirdly horrible.
Yeah eng is substantially better
Block is shit.
Your tc kinda low for ic5 ds. I’d expect around 350k at current stock prices
Multiple offers in this market. You must be amazing at your work.
It's going to be hard to get much over 300 anywhere for a Sr DS in this market. The DS market is worse than SWE unless you're in model building or have a niche skillset, which normally occurs at L6+.
Idk exactly but from my experience block pays lower than other companies when I was looking at L4 roles
That’s what I feel based on level fyi as well. But better wlb is probably worth 10% to 15% salary for me
I’d stay at Meta which has gone through major layoffs while Block is just starting with layoffs.
