Hi Folks,

I need some advise on numbers or what I can expect for my level of experience at Netflix.

I am being offered a senior software engineer in Test role at Netflix, HR wants me to come up with my expectations on salary and take it from there and see how it goes with their numbers. Basically HR expects me to roll the ball first w.r.to comp. This is my first job change in bay, I moved to Oracle from east coast so no experience negotiating here.

How should I proceed here? What can I expect from Senior Software Eng in Test role for someone with 6plus yrs of experience in US and 2 yrs abroad.

My Goal: I wanted to get what Netflix Engineers make for that level of experience, I do not want to low ball myself or quote higher since I am going to roll the conversation first. Any other advice will also be really helpful

PS : I do not have a competing offer at this point of time time though I expect one in few days, also currently I am not actively interviewing anywhere else since I was very single minded with Netflix and I like the team and work there.

I don’t think Glassdoor or other pay scale websites will help me, They are suffering from poor data models. So I bank on some of your inputs here. Thank you
