Got offer for principal software engineer at Microsoft, Redmond WA. Did not get the numbers yet, but what can I expect ? YOE: 10 Current TC: 350k
350 TC in hand is too much
What level are you expecting from G?
Not sure. Recruiter said depends on the interview experience. I believe I did well.
L65 here. TC last year was $305k. I'm pretty sure that's the low end of 65 though, this was my first full year at this level. L66 is much higher. I don't remember specific but the pay/level curve gets very steep above 65..
That ($350k) is a TON of money in Seattle, lower middle-class in the Bay Area ...
Lower middle class? What do you eat? Shit? GTFO
A ton in Seattle? Lol sure if you want to live an hr away from work or live in a shack
Why move if you already have TC $350K? At least you can forget about Zillow...
I work in a mid size company, lots of people left recently, especially my colleagues and manager. There’s not much development. Don’t see a future here. Hence planning to move.
That makes sense.
Do you have any other offer?
Not yet. But awaiting results from Zillow and Google
