What can be the package expectation for Senior software Engineer backend role at Paytm, in the current market? CTC: 19LPA Exp: 4yr Bangalore, India #tech #interview #offer
If they’re offering you anything below 35-40 say no
Ask for 30 if you have counter offer you have edge in negotiation
Generally for 4 yoe, they pay base around 25. Some cases i’ve seen close to 30. Along with base, do ask for stocks. These days almost all new hires are getting stocks
Also keep in consideration that WLB would be going to be horrible across most teams in paytm.
If at 2+ yoe they are paying you hefty 30+ as base plus stocks then it is quite good. work hours are long but dude the products, domain & tech-stack is top notch.. Team members are supportive. Paytm is a growing company and your contribution is expected here to grow further. you gotta be a grown-up goddamn man. If you're single then look for growth in a company not work life balance. In early years growth is much more important.
A friend of mine with 2.5 yoe joined Paytm as Senior Software Engineer MG02A grade with base of 30lpa His tc in last company was 14 lpa
Was it in Paytm Money vertical?
Paytm payment gateway team
What about for 8 yoe for Lead role at Paytm? I asked them 30 but then got an offer for 33.5 + 2 (jb) elsewhere. Now, what should I demand? base- 40 or more or less ??
When you asked them 30 did they agree? what did they came back with? I think it is reasonable to ask 40+ in your case
Before the process they said ok for 30... Just gave the last round.... In HR discussion will put up new expectation.
