Very good

Microsoft NotDoable May 19, 2018

I would take it if I were you. Upside after getting promoted to senior at Google is immense along with better opportunities for the next job as it is better resume and compensation for T5 will be much more than L65 at Microsoft which will take long time for you to make. You can get senior in two years at Google by comparison.

Thanks for these details! Good to know about the 2yr target for T5 also. Thank you!

You *can* doesn’t mean you *will*. 3 years is a more real estimate.

Base goes down 🙁

Microsoft Satya-n May 19, 2018

Don't get your base down.

Rsu and sign on seem ok without competing offers. Base is not.

From when did TPMs start to get paid equivalent to SWEs?

Apple cho Chang May 19, 2018

This isn’t equivalent to swe, the L4 Base would be higher like 150 and the RSUs would also be a bit higher like at least 350

They do in Microsoft Amazon for sure

Nope. Get competing offers. Never go for lower base unless the RSUs have huge potential, in case of google its at 20% upside per annum. Not worth it

Atlassian rpvsjckuv May 19, 2018

Google PM interview process contains a Technical Interview. Same question as SWE. So yes, nowadays you can hardly crack the Google PM interview without LeetCoding
