Background: I work in a D2C consumer product startup, we have an in-house website and a growing tech team of 7 people. The whole business team is 100+. I'm a '23 grad from a tier 1 engineering college.

I joined the company back in September when the job market was at the bottom and I had to take a 40% pay cut (21LPA to 12LPA) (while switching (the last company ran out of funding). I was at a higher than avg base in my previous role but the current role is 20% below the average. (15LPA) The company is in a growth stage and lots of processes are yet to be defined which leads to a lot of chaos but I get a lot of freedom as well.

My manager is aware of the whole situation and we had also negotiated a 6-month review for ESOP allotment. My monthly reviews have been going well and we have shipped some good improvements and features over the last few months.

Only PM in the startup, how much appraisal should I ask for at 6 months?

I have been working as an APM at a series C startup for the last 1 year. I did my MBA from a tier 1 college. Worked as a full stack developer for 2 years before that.

Am I underpaid? What would be a fair market compensation.

Should I try getting another PM job in a different company  or switch back to being a dev. ( Not liking PM that much, the dev role was a better experience.)

Welcome to Personal Finance's Private Community

Hey Guys, Typically how much are CAs working in Startup’s (Seed / Series A) as Finance Manager or Finance Controllers, paid ? (Cash + ESOP)?

Any information or insights would be helpful since there seems to be very less publicly available data on this.

PS: Years of experience can be between 2-5 years

Thanks 😊

Software Developer

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

I have spent equal amount of time in MNC and startup  facing high salary growths and layoffs. I am currently at 31 LPA in an MNC using  all highly demanding tech stack and enjoying what I do.

I need help understanding if 31 LPA fixed + (2.5 lpa variable extra) is a right as per standards both ways either underpaid or overpaid.

I am more comfortable in an MNC and wanted to get more insights before making a switch.

Senior Engineer

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

There’s this chap on GV who posted that they haven’t received any calls for the past 3 months. Has 2.5 years experience with a current ctc around 15L. We spoke to them only to realise their expectations are 32L (26 fixed and 6 in esops)

In a market flooded with resumes due to unfortunate situations, is it fair to have such an expectation and at the same time, call out on GV that they haven’t been getting calls for an interview?

Are high expectations in such a market valid (even accounting for cream deserves takes)

26 fixed seems pretty reasonable, I don’t know how much lower you can expect

How much do PMs earn in startups with different years of experience and in giants like FAANG?

PM ki kamaai

Analyst

I work in a fintech company. Revenue and growth wise we are good, we just got acquired by a large internet platform too. Also, last year has been a tremendous learning for me as well. I like being PM but looking to move out of my current industry (lending) as I want to explore other domains and I feel like my CTC here is somewhat low (18.5 + 1.5 bonus) considering my experience (around 4.5 years). My boss said that I will get ESOPS (around 10 lacs) which I can liquidate around 50% this year. Should I wait for my appraisal to complete (will happen around April) and look to switch or should I start preparing for interviews now itself?

Company is good but CTC pinches

I’m a final year student based out of India, and am currently doing the last month of my internship at a SF based startup. As the only DevOps engineer, and being quite skilled at at (at least according to myto YoE), I was getting paid around 2 LPA per month as a part time intern for the past 6 months. 

I recently got another 3 month internship offer from a foreign company, and I’m taking it since I don’t want to get stuck at remote job in India, and explore some abroad companies as well before I settle. Pay there is also quite good, but I don’t wish to take FTE there as I have to live in India only (family reasons, rural background, younger siblings and their study, etc.)

Now when I finally start my job hunt in the final days of my winter internship, what should be the pay I expect from Indian / Remote companies? Considering I was getting paid a fair amount as mentioned above even in a part time role. Or was I overpaid and I should keep my expectations low or equal to it in a Full Time Role?

Need a reality check: Am I getting overpaid?

YoE: 10.7 (7@amazon — SDE3 for 2.7 years)
Current designation: SDE3
Current salary : 92L + 25L stock
Location: BLR, IN 

I got a call from google for L7 role (BLR) which is staff role in India afaik. HR mentioned Payrange: 2-3Cr

I get mixed reviews from people so asking again for BLR folks: 

1. Amount of focus on coding round vs system design?
2. Amount of leet code preparation?
3. In the interview Is the focus more on leadership or knowing deeper tech nuances? 
4. What’s the payrange I can get?
5. Is google L7 equivalent of amazon L6? Levels.fyi has split so not exactly sure. 

I am looking for responses from people who have actually gone through similar experiences rather than “I heard from my sources”.

Software Test - QA

I am currently the only PM at a very small Agri-Tech startup. I did my MBA from an IIM.
I am currently getting 12 LPA with 18 months of experience.

I wanted to know if I am underpaid. If yes, how should I prepare myself to get referred to better companies?

Salary

I'm a Product Manager with 2 YOE at a SaaS company.
I've cleared interviews for a US-based company.
What salary can I expect from them?

Current TC: 12LPA (83k take home, rest are bonuses and stocks) 

What can I expect from the new company? 
I think I'm underpaid and I've managed to impress the interviewers.

Please help me a fellow PM!

What is a fair ESOP to Cash Component ratio in the CTC  for a product manager with 3-4 years of experience in a start-up at $20 mn valuation, at series A?

ESOP allocation

A friend is applying to a US-based unicorn startup. The role is remotely based out of India. First PM from India.

The average SPM salary available online is in $. Comes around $150-250k. No PMs are based in India, and expats are not replying on LinkedIn.  

The PPP comparison makes the average salary in INR go high. Any idea what number could one quote for the role?
