What is your current level?

Curious about the level distribution of blind since sometimes even (alleged) L8+ level people post here. Try to account for title inflation and choose one relative to the usual ladder at top tech companies (looking at you, LinkedIn/Bloomberg folks). Use levels.fyi for comparison if you are unsure.

Levels are very ambiguous across companies and doesn't hold the same bar.

You are missing senior staff (L7)

What's the diff between staff and principal? Aren't they the same. Like G uses staff, we use principal.

At G: staff is L6, senior staff L7, principal L8 Click on the link: G principal is more like you 68/69

So basically staff=principal, principal=partner. The point is we need some reference standard.
