Accepted a new grad swe offer from google in mtv (120/100/15) without negotiation because I really like Google and only had a similar offer from ms. Failed 4 onsites at unicorns in sf.
I know the pay band range is pretty big for L3 and mine is at the bottom. I’ve heard of negotiated offers up to (120/250/100). Is my TC stuck at bottom when promo to L4/L5 or is the position in pay band dependent at promo based on performance. If one negotiated higher at the beginning, is the room for TC to grow smaller?
Edit: my question has not been answered yet so I will clarify. Should I: 1)just work harder at Google or 2)do the leetcode needful and prepare to switch companies in 1-2 year
Edit: also looking for roommates. Apparently I cant afford rent 🤷♂️

I take a shuttle and my transportation is 0k.
Other large, rich metro areas have high housing costs, but also low housing cost areas. Because there’s enough built for both rich and poor to live.
