I’m an L5 at Shopify looking to leave in a couple of months. Any idea of companies that hire in Canada and pay CAD 30k + more than Shopify for L5 roles. TC: CAD 120k #compensation #Shopify #canada
Meta
How’s work life balance outside of compensation?
I really enjoy the work, tools, life
SWE?
Yeah, SWE
It’s been pretty good so far, but I think the experience is largely team dependent. The only issue I have is the compensation and benefits to be honest
Bolt will pay 250K USD base + options/sign on bonus for L5 in Canada ( they will convert the usd to cad btw)
Bolt L5 is not Shopify L5. Shopify L5 is almost a new grad.
O shit okok
Amazon, Meta, Google, Stripe, Chime, Instacart etc. etc. etc. Almost all Bay Area pre-ipo companies also hire remote from Canada nowadays.
Can you throw out a few names of the pre-ipo companies?
Stripe, Chime, Instacart.
120k is peanuts, no?
Yeah, it is that’s why I want to leave
Fortinet offers 170-180k with 2-3 YOE, no LeetCode
Coinbase
Do they hire remotely? And do you know what an average L5 TC is like there?
Yes, Coinbase is fully remote
Brex. You can get 350k+ TC for Senior SWE.
Instacart, Amazon, Pinterest, Google, Stripe
Amazon?
