How long do promotions take on average? What is the average tenure to go from L3 to L4 and say from 4 to 5. I read somewhere that growth is slow and takes upwards of 2 years. Is this correct?
It’s roughly modeled on Google and Facebooks levels. L3 to L4 is often fast (1-2 years). L4 to L5 can be slow. Not everyone makes it to L6. But in theory there are not timelines, it’s about your performance
I got my L5 to L6 promo after 6-7 months of my joining date. I know multiple people who got promoted within a year.
Very impressive! Congratulations
That's very impressive. Were you downleveled while joining?
