After reading recent posts of people and my firsthand experience with Google 3 weeks back, it looks like Google is lowballing everyone in terms of salary and giving them shit salaries no matter what is the yoe. I got TC of 33L (20L+ 3 + 55k) (having almost 3yoe), this is same as a fresher's salary at google. Will google lowball me in Annual Stock refreshers as well ? I heard that 30k was the amount you get at CME (meeting expectations) performance. Can this decrease too looking at shitty salary they are offering? #google #googleindia
They all know about blind and transparency about TC through others websites(levels.fyi, etc), so they trying to be smarter. Getting multiple offers and having them beat each other is the only way out
Also, before the offer/numbers talk, have your research done and know your worth. If they ask, you should know what you deserve. To know your real worth exhibits confidence.
Well I think Google(not only india) lowballs everyone.

What's your current TC?
current is 22L (18 + 4L ESOPS)
It's not a lowball then dude. It's 50% hike. Why would any company pay you more than this without competing offers? Your salary is always a function of salary range at the target level, current salary and competing offers. Base range for L3 is 16.8-24. Stop being a cry baby. This is how the world works. For refreshers, you won't get anything the year you join, you'll get the first refresher in Jan 2023. For CME it's 25k IIRC for L3. It's also very very common to get L3 at 3yoe if you don't excel at the interviews.
