Interviewing with MS for SDE2. Will they get close to 250k TC? Levels-fyi is disappointing. Highest I see for 62 is 200k. Current TC : little over 200k 5 YOE SDE2
Sorry, not likely. There's plenty of sample data around for SDE2 pay, and unless you bag a special stock award at your first review, or the stock goes way up after you're hired, you won't make 250k/yr until L64/65.
Sad but true unless you get really lucky. MSFT pays shit unless they really really want you.
Microsoft? Beating Amazon comp? 😂😂😂😂
L62 can go up to about 230k
Did you get that offer?
For 63, my offer near Seattle base + rsu/4 + signing/4 = 215 k I walked away.
Uber Lyft Airbnb Snapchat 300k for SDE 2. 400k for entry level senior which you are qualified to apply with 5 yoe
Y not try for senior ? It should be possible
After month long of back and forth recruiter said there was no matching senior role. Not willing to relocate atm.
