Could be that they realises how pathetically overpaying they were, during the zirp era. Yes, companies can pay more, but that's not how businesses run. Most of those who have not tried to match the zirp era madness have not laid off employees either 💁🏻‍♂️

Heard from someone that Google is extensively lowballing new hires, providing way lesser average base pay and stock grant as compared to 2023/2022. They are taking advantage of a bad job market. Is the brand name still worth it?

Software Developer

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

I'm looking for opportunities in Pune. I see companies in Bengaluru are hiring a lot and they are paying more than the market standards. I want to collate a list of such companies.

Let's add the names of  companies which give hefty compensation(e.g. 25LPA+ for 4 YOE) to software engineers(fullstack) for Pune location in the comments. I believe this post will help many.

Thanks

Companies that give hefty compensation to Software Engineers

I have worked at Microsoft for a year at L59, got the job through campus selection. 
Despite of a lot of hard work, my manager said there is not much hope to promote me to L60 even after 6 more months.
I landed an offer in Google, with 25 percent increase in inhand salary and almost same valued stock component as in my current CTC.
Despite of the salary change being so good, I’ve had people telling me that this is not a good time to switch to Google because:
1. The laying off secenario at Google 
2. The work life balance has become terrible there in the past year
3. There is a lot of office politics there, so bad working environment in general 
4. Microsoft Stocks have a lot more potential than Google stocks

Please share your opinions on Google vs Microsoft.
Thanks.

Getting an offer from Google after spending 1 year in Microsoft

Data Scientist

Contemplating between an offer at Google vs a Series A startup, in India, with similar pay.

I'm curious to know if Google as a name on the resume (or for future prospects) is still as big as it was maybe 5-8 years ago? 

Or is India just a low cost employee centre for them and it'll always be down-the-stream work, at the whims of middle/senior managers?

YoE: 4

Happy to hear any thoughts (and answer any questions)!

To all the Googlers out there
How is the work culture and WLB at Google post layoffs. Also have there been any changes.
- What is the usual increment percentage/hike they give annually 
- Do they give Stock refresher every year 
Please mention your YOE too

Google Culture

This has become a common discussion topic in my friend circle when we think about switching jobs. Earlier Google used to be number one choice for many, but now due to layoffs and the hear-say about toxic work culture in google cloud things are changing and people are preferring other companies. Is it the same for you as well ? has your perception of Google changing too? Is google loosing both the cloud and AI battle?

Is Google no longer the dream company it used to be?

Hi, I know this is a shot in the dark but any chance someone can give me a ballpark figure on how much I should be expecting. 

This is for an L2 position as strategic partner manager, YouTube.the recruiter quoted 15 - 20 LPA

My current is 12 lpa including sign on bonus of 4L and 50 stocks allotted vesting over 4 years that currently hold a value of 8L.(Current Amazon)

Should I negotiate ? If yes, how should I go on about it ?

Project Manager

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

I don’t see many talking about what goes inside. It would have a low performing quota for firing but I do see many long tenured folks there. Even though it’s loss making, I have read good things of its culture and massive pay. Just wondering if it’s like the best place to be in terms of pay and culture ?

Thanks

Amidst the India layoff news, I just discovered this. Impacted employees will receive much lesser stock options than communicated before! 

https://www.indiatoday.in/technology/news/story/google-miscalculates-severance-packages-laid-off-employees-to-get-less-stock-than-expected-2333713-2023-02-12

How TF are these so-called big companies running like BAU after being such jerks? Imagine calculating the severance package wrong?

Google miscalculates severance package!!

Brand Communication Manager

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

I work for a early stage startup (A) right now since about 1.5yrs at base 18lpa (no appraisal since my tenure even though I was told they have a bi-annual cycle, but It never happened)

I have another company (B), willing to offer base 28lpa (but will require relocation). 

I still haven't interviewed at B, and was wondering if i can should talk to A asking for an appraisal? I'm also not sure if i should mention about B at all. 

How much i understand A will be like let us launch something and then we can talk about appraisals, but this has been going on since a year now and we tend to change the architecture or the methodology everytime we almost have something ready to ship. 


That being said still I'd rather stay at A than relocate for B at the moment. 

How should I go about this, any suggestions? TIA
