Anyone knows TC for data science manager at AirBnB? I am a PhD with 6 years of experience including 3 in SE.
6 years out of college and you expect To be taken serious as a Manager? 😂
Out of PhD, not college, I've seen managers with fewer yoe
No, just no. You'll be L4 at best.
Question still stands - any pointers?
Do you have an offer? It’s incredibly hard to get one. You would likely be L5/M1. Rough guess and wide range, but probably 180-240K base and 400-800k in stock.
Just going to point out that a recent poll in a private Airbnb channel gave a 20% approval rating to DS leadership, particularly the leader over the past year. Proceed at your own risk.
EG? What went wrong?
In short: lacks industry and technical experience, heavily favors women and friends for promotions and leadership positions (reverse sexism), deprioritizes ML work in favor of “more impactful” analytical work (e.g. metrics, logging) even for those hired for ML specific roles due to insecurity / lack of understanding of the topic, protects and puts other terrible managers on a pedestal, and is constantly run over by other company leaders, particularly in product. For a shorter answer, you could’ve asked “what went right?”. She recently was effectively demoted by virtue of losing out in recent reorg, and many suspect / are hoping she gets pushed out when VP of Eng leaves soon. As bad as she is, there are no other obvious replacements internally. We should hire someone externally with a strong background like we didn’t do when EG was promoted, due to laziness on VP’s part, or perhaps his desire to promote a weak leader that wouldn’t threaten him, and would look great for the company / team externally, particularly in the face of the then Uber mess.

Worried that our top performer is an attrition risk. How do managers handle this?
