Hey team, I just wanted to ask about offer ranges for this particular role at Microsoft. I got a phone call and was only given the range. I'd thought I would ask the community for some metrics on what should I expect from this? I do have other offers, will they match? Offer 1: Amazon (Seattle) | L5 | 280k TC (average over 4 years) Offer 2: Apple (Bay Area) | ICT4 | 295k TC (average over 4 years) Offer 3: Microsoft (Redmond) | L62 | 200k (average over 4 years) -- Verbal Range YoE: 3 TC: 200k Thanks so much everyone! #Microsoft #Amazon #Apple #SWE
Go with Apple. Msft you can ask more may be till 240k. But refreshers will kill your Comp. How did you prep ! All questions from leetcode ? And system design ?
Hey and yeah! Mine was 4 interviews for SDE2/senior. 2 LC questions, both from leetcode (same interview). 2 OOP Design questions and 1 system design
I just did a bunch of LCs and then read the system design primer/grokking
MSFT refreshers are bad, like 30k over 5 years for your level
How do they determine refreshers? Is it yearly? Or after x years at company?
its yearly. its also tied to performance, but i think on average people meet expectations and get the target refresher (30k/5yr). MSFT isn't a terminal landing place since they have bad refreshers, IMO. I mean if your tired of the grind, MSFT is great.
