What would be an ideal TC for L5 or L6 that is based of a better cost of living city which isn’t in the Bay Area, Seattle or NYC? Position is GCP Customer Engineer. Please give TC for both L5 & L6 since I don’t what I will be offered.
Cost of living doesn’t matter
Why wouldn’t it? They aren’t going to pay someone the same TC in the Bay Area as in Texas
Compensation in the Bay Area and Seattle are similar, despite COL in Bay Area being roughly 100% higher once you factor in taxes and the need to raise a family of four. COL literally does not make it onto the income statement. Only revenue and profit. The only reason they’d pay you less in Texas is if there were plenty of other people just as good as you in Texas that they can pay less.
It's cost of labor, not cost of living
Ok forget COL, I misunderstood what that meant. What would be a good TC for a L5 and L6 GCP Customer Engineer that will not be based out of the Bay Area, NYC or Seattle? I’m tying to get a best estimation so I know what to shoot for in negotiation. Thanks.
