What is the expected TC for 1.5 YOE hire?
What is the culture like in the London office?
TC: £32k and going up to £35k next month
LC: slightly over 200
Extra details:
Working remotely from Poland, which means I have great quality of life on this salary, and are able to put away around £1300 a month.
Interviewing for couple of roles in Cambridge around £50k mark, and in London around £65k mark + Goldman.
Just started the process tbh - was hoping Goldman will take longer to get back to me, but here we are!
Another question, for anyone from London:
The London roles require me to move there. How much would I need in London to be able to live comfortably and boost my saving rate to £2k a month?

As a thumb of rule, people with 3.5 YoE + bachelors or people with 2.5 YoE + masters are leveled as Associate, if interviews were good. So, 3 YoE will most probably come in as an Analyst if the person has Bachelors degree.
In that case, for Analyst with 3 YoE, base can be £60-65k. Associate can take around £70-75k, I think. Analyst with 3 YoE should get promoted in <1 year of joining, if the performance is okay.
A good standard one bed flat is £1,200-1,500 + bills
Let's say you spend £1,500 total on accommodation inc. bills and extra £1,000 on everything else: food, transportation, some fun. To save £2,000 after tax you'd have to net £4,500 which is around £80k gross a year.
I glossed over pension contributions, there's a lot of explanations online about how that works. Have a read.
