Google Kirkland L3 swe compensation
Hey, I recently interviewed with Google for Machine Learning Software engineer and done with team matching. I am expecting the hiring committee decision pretty soon (tomorrow) and would like to know more about the TC offered at Google Kirkland office.
My bio:
- Masters in CS specialized in ML
- Working in Microsoft Redmond for last 1.5 years
- Filed a patent while working ( this patent is in the related field I'll be joining in Google)
- Microsoft Level 60
I think interviews went well and got a team match call from 3-4 teams.
Compensation expectation:
I m expecting a TC about 220k-250k. My current TC at Microsoft is 180k.
Note: Before interview when recruiter asked me my expectations we agreed on 220k-230k TC but in MTV. We had a brief discussion on this during team match and he said that Kirkland TC might be less. BUT I insisted that I am looking (deserve) the discussed compensation ie 220k-230k.
Q. What are your thoughts on the TC?
Q. Are my expectations unreasonable?
Q. Since I am working in a related field in Microsoft and have a patent I think that I deserve this?
Thanks

If not depends on a lot of factors on how high they go. You can't say "I want this much" without competing offers. They won't budge.
Your comp at L60 looks higher than most L61s I know. Recruiters or comp committees know market trends. They might ask you for proof.
And how many total rounds did you have? How many ML specific?
