Canada compensation for sde2

I'm considering too. But the compensation mentioned on Glassdoor doesn't look too great. It was ~70k Canadian dollars for a new hire. Hopefully someone else can give a better insight.

For someone with decent experience (3-4 years), I heard base is around 90-100 CAD. I’m also looking for some concrete info from people who moved from US to Canada and are working there.

Are you guys planning on internal transfer or through PR?

Do it man! I did the same

I used to live in Toronto, which has a slightly lower COL. A new graduate in Toronto can get 85k from one of the big banks in a data science field. This number is also similar to the compensation that others offer in the area, wealthsimple etc. Google afaik is the only one who really pays more than anyone due to signing bonus and the like. Someone from waterloo did a survey id encourage you to checkout, its on linkedin and reddit. For someone with experience, its reasonable to say then you can expect at least 90-100k+. Glassdoor for microsoft in Vancouver lists 91k on avg, but unclear of the experience there and that might just be base salary. In terms of col, vancouver is expensive.

I did an internal transfer from the Redmond campus. Base is ~100k CAD for L61. However, since I moved from Redmond, I also have some allowance, which totals to around ~131k CAD. Living cost is not cheap, especially for housing. But food is excellent, life is laid back here, and Vancouver is a much better city IMO.
