How is work at Google Hyderabad. i am currently interviewing with them and lately getting a negative vibe with google(cancelled promos, perf cycles and some noise around cost cutting) . Some even asked me why i was trying to change my company at all.#engineering #google Current TC: 74L INR yoe: 5.5
Google > Amazon.
This was my understanding too. I was just worried with the latest news of hiring freeze and other measures at Google
Dang how did you get to such a high TC? What was your progression like?
Was an intern and later joined a growing team. Had a good SDE3 mentor(I was lucky here) in my first project itself. Later on got promoted to SDE2 with previous efforts. Next many engineers(SDE2) left my current team. I stayed back and focused on projects which they left behind. Overall the team was growing and not many old folks were left and so management I guess invested in my growth.
Are you SDE 3 at 5.5 YOE?
Yes
TLDR: Don't accept anything less than L5 at Google and you should be fine.
That is my plan. Asked the recruiter to specifically arrange for L5 role only.
You will interview for L5. They will give you L4 with a good bump in TC. You will eventually accept and then repent joining at a lower level.
I focused more on taking on difficult tech challenges which have good business impact. Got a good mentor who gave very good suggestions and believed in the process overall. One thing really which helped me are the honest discussions with mentor about strengths and weaknesses. Later we just tracked through the progress and documented the whole journey. One other factor which helped me was supportive management otherwise very hard to get the right opportunities to move forward
Insane Tc
Is that the comp after amazon stock rally ?
No, now the TC is around 78L
hey OP, your TC so high! I've got 4.5 YOE and am at TC 7.6L 😕
New bro! Don't loose hope. I was exactly at 7.6L at 4.5 YOE Right now I'm at 35L at 6.5 YOE And I'm pretty sure the growth will be even better here onwards 😃 Keep working hard. Leetcode and System Design and keep interviewing. You'll get everything.
OP, did you join Google? At what TC and role?
Great TC. Do you mind sharing the split? Does Amazon have a salary cap in India?
Base 55.4L and 18.6 L RSU. Salary cap for SDE3 is around 1.2 cr
Interesting. Do you have work ex outside of Hyderbad? I am planning go move back next year
