I have an offer for Senior Software Engineer L64 and the TC is around 260k. Am I being lowballed ? Can I push for 300k ? No counter offers and 7 yoe. Note: Not in Amazon right now and current TC is 🥜 #Microsoft #redmond
You will not get promoted for likely a long time. So understand that your TC will likely not move very much until that happens. If you’re comfortable with that - go nuts.
Wrong. Even if they get promoted next day they will also get no meaningful TC increase lol
From what I heard is ~220k is the average TC for seniors engineers at Microsoft
Grab as much as you can as promos will take a long time here And refreshers are peanuts
Yes trying to. But recruiter mentioned for a 300k tc the approvals needs to be at much higher level. Not sure how far this is true.
L63 at 330k is possible
Push for more, how did you calculate tc? Does that include bonus and other pieces as well? 260 external seems low
Whats the breakdown for 260k? All of it in base + bonus?
What is the TC split?
Depends on the group and the role. Need more information.
It’s Senior Software Engineer. I don’t want to share the group.
for a L64 in Microsoft, 260K is a reasonable offer promotions happen in 18months to 24 months time.. by when you TC will be around 330K range which is common in Microsoft.. you are obviously not comparing this offer with Stripe or others in the seattle area.. so i would say go for it
