what was your compensation before you left?

• mlthoughts2018 7y ago
  In the range of $500k / year assuming the bonus was the target amount. One year it was substantially higher.

    Sorry to bother you but do you know how much a senior engineer in a FAANG could make as a developer in these places on average? Especially London?

      It depends on how much you're bringing to the table and how well you interview, but $400-600k/yr "total compensation (considering 4yr cliffs, etc)" packages happen with regularity and I know two people who have negotiated a 1m/yr total comp at Facebook(on the IG team). Neither were "senior devs" as I'd normally call them but extreme ICs who have deep understanding of Linux and can scale big infrastructure and sling code. Don't know about London though. All values in USD.

        Gah. I messed up my question. I was asking what someone currently working in a FAANG could make if they moved to these financial firms.

      FAANG pay in London is far lower than in the Bay Area.
  • dbancajas 7y ago
    And how much are you earning now as a senior dev in FAANG?
    • pertymcpert 7y ago
      Why is that relevant?
