Dogshit 😂 We think we are high up there, bar is high and all that crap, truth is it’s not. People who put these rules are just buffoons that doesn’t want very competent people get next to them because they know they will be crushed..

If I believed and felt like you, I would have bolted out of the door the same day. I see competent people at work every day, and no crushing fears from their managers.
The gulf between L5 and L6 is indeed large. L5 can be a terminal level. Promo likely to take 3+ years with strong performance. Not sure about concrete comp numbers
What is the exact difference? Also, what is the YOE needed for L5? And how long does it typically take from L5 to L6
8-10 depending on education. L6 requires having developed skills on a different dimension (Leadership, mentorship, creating cross functional consensus on larger topics, role model, etc.)
