Currently, L6 at Amazon, and want to move. Have been interviewing for staff+ level roles. The offers seem lower than what I was expecting. Is the market so down or just me being lowballed? Offers (negotiations in progress) Uber - 560K LinkedIn - 490K TC: 430K Seattle Yoe 9
How is offering more than your current TC a low-ball? Is this troll?
LinkedIn Staff is senior anywhere else. + I think companies know Amazon pays 🥜 so there's no incentive to bid higher unless you get higher offers
After layoffs companies do try to lowball, especially as a first number (see e.g. https://interviewing.io/blog/how-to-negotiate-with-meta for some context). Multiple offers potentially triggering a bidding war + being firm and ready to walk away is as important as ever.
Meta/Netflix etc might pay more. Uber/Linkedin cannot 🤷♀️
Trying for Meta, but don’t see too many roles at Netflix.
Oh I thought Meta was hiring in hordes
Congratulations for the offers. Real question. Do you do leetcode at this level ?
Yes
Staff linkedin seems low
What is the max that you think it can go to?
Bro still thinks we’re in 2020🤣
Those seem normal. Staff and Principal levels at non-faang barely crack 300k TC most times. That seems like a good offer from Uber tbqh.
Seems normal
