Current L4 PM at Google. Got an external offer for 283k at a ecommerce company, Etsy. I have a very clean path to L6 from my current role, but it would most likely take 3.5-4 years. Google salary is $248k. YOE 3. I am thinking jumping ship is the fastest way to L6, but want to sanity check given the economy and everything. Am I dummi?
This sounds like the worst idea in this market - especially for such a small raise.
The fact that you are considering this at all makes you nuts
If you claim that you have a clean path to L6 why would you even consider going anywhere else, let alone for a measly 35k bump? You will get a ton more as an L6 in a few years time.
how do you know you have a path to L6, when you’re still at L4 ? If you had said this as a L5, it would have made sense.
Do you like Etsy? Have an offer and thinking of making a move… not sure how risky it is, current job is quite safe
Risky it is. enough have i said
