All the people I talked to in my interview loops and during team sell calls all were at Snap for like 4+ years. One dude was one of the first thirty engineers at Snap. In an industry notorious for job hopping and with the handful of complaints I've seen (e.g. slow promotions (especially L4 to L5), not so great WLB, volatile stock too) it strikes me as odd. Not to imply that I have not heard good things about Snap too. I'm just curious Can any current or previous Snap folk explain the high tenure TC: 180k YOE: 3
Maybe Snap takes good care of its employees and they are happy. š¤·āāļø
can you use words that Amazonians can understand?
They enjoy seeing the nudes.
One of the perks of working at Snap.
Can you share your interview experience? Most people in snap are doing devil's work since snap is starting to become new onlyfans.
nothing exceptional. Just got good at LC med and did lots of mock interviews. I still get stuck on hards
Maybe they only let the most senior folks become interviewers
I interview and Iāve been here only a year.
I interview and Iāve been on my team less than 5 months š
They pay extremely well.
According to LinkedIn the median tenure at Snap is 2 yrs. Microsoft and Google are 4 yrs. Meta (Facebook) is also 2 yrs. LinkedIn is 3 yrs.
where'd you find that data on LinkedIn?
I think you need LinkedIn premium. But itās on the company page -> Insights.
What role/team are you interviewing for? Thereās definitely a lot of new hires but thereās clusters of old timers. Maybe you are interviewing in a core area that has a concentration of them.
I've been meeting with teams in security, ml infra, monetization ml infra
Promotions used to be easier, a lot of people still have old stacked refresher grants (which do not exist anymore), so oftentimes they can't get higher TC elsewhere
How is culture? Leadership? Do you believe in the roadmap?
This is the right answer
Not many higher paying jobs in socal Iād think. Also the culture is a bit different down south compared to the valley so less hopping perhaps.

4+ years is considered high tenure?
That's Millennials bar for long šš
š. People should take ālowā tenure as a red flag unless itās a growing new team. All of the teams Iāve worked on that had high tenure rate had great culture in regards to growth/pay
