Warning: India Post Currently L4 at Google, hoping to get promoted this cycle. I am expecting an L64 offer from Microsoft India. Is it worth the move? Current TC: 320k Expected TC: 80L Also, anyone in msft India willing to chat more about the culture there?
Microsoft L64 can definitely pay more than 80L.
Why only 80l. ? I thought msft india 64 can cross 1 cr
Even 63 can cross 1cr in some cases. For 64, can exceed 1.2 cr easily.
Your numbers are outdated. 1.5 cr is the going rate.
I was not aware about that. Can someone share the split of 1cr?
do you have obligations in india? if not why move at all
L64 TC will not cross 1.1-1.2cr which is less than what you'll get as a newly promoted L5 because of your higher refresher grants in the US. Just look at your go/prosper for RSUs and calculate the TC for the next 4 years with ~55L base. Microsoft has shit refreshers in India. L65 gets the same as L3 in Google. So your TC won't grow. Also if they give 80L TC you don't even need L5 promo to beat it. You can wait till promo and get L65 with more TC if you absolutely want to move.
I am definitely trying to push for L65. Any idea how much can L65 make in India? Are you comparing absolute numbers or normalized by purchasing power parity? Is it a better idea to compare RSUs in $ and cash (base + bonus) normalized by ppp?
I mentioned the actual numbers you'll get in India at Google for internal transfer and Microsoft for external hires. You'll keep your RSUs when you move internally so you can use that to get a very competitive offer in India. L65 can go upto 1.5cr afaik.
80 is not even top band for Google L4, definately not worth going L64 at microsoft at that TC. Micro lowballs a lot better get other offers or move internally in G . Lots of L4 positions in BLR.
Why not move to Google India for a much higher TC?
From what I know, Google and msft pay is similar in India. There are also limited positions for team transfer right now with Google.
Not true. Google pay is definitely better.
