Current TC 750, Google TC 620 after a few rounds of negotiations with compete offers.

Had FB on resume.

    For that TC, your IQ is pretty low.

    Don’t worry about these asshats who will probably never get paid your current TC. Google brand is worthwhile. People literally build careers on the brand, I’ve seen businesses started because “former google engineer” accompanies these peoples names. The question is what will you do with the brand on your resume?

      I'm not sure how much more you get once you already have one FAANG on your resume.

    This isn’t the 2010s. The Google brand is gone. Reduced to atoms

      You think a reputation of working 10am to 3pm at Google is good for you career? 🤔

      “Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. Weak men create hard times.”

      Where do you think Google is on this cycle?

    As long as people agree to this Google will keep downleveling. You already have the Uber brand, not worth it.

      Yeah in this specific case there might not be downleveling, see what OP says, but it's still a TC downgrade. Nevertheless, Blind is full of actual downlevel stories, you can't ignore these.

      OP
      I think it is half level up, though comp wise 5b offer is very similar to L6, the bar is lower. I joined more than one year ago, so will have 2 yrs + to accumulate refresh to push TC even higher, if Uber stock won’t crash.
