I have an L4 offer and I am currently an EM at a startup. I was a tech lead before that, and a senior before that. Kinda bummed to step down to mid-level, but the TC is higher than my current comp (I mean I have stock options but who knows how much or when those will pay out).
Never worked in big tech, but I am consistently a top performer everywhere I have been, strong work ethic, fast learner and all that. So per the title: how long might it take me to get an L5 promo, and what will it take?
yoe: 5 (plus several more not in tech)
current TC: 195k
Google offer: 298k
