What is mid-level FAANG a downgrade from . . ? Mid-level FAANG seems like it'd be a huge "upgrade" in compensation and scale for most developers, and would be the crowning jewel of their career.

- decafninja 5y agoThis. I was a Senior SWE at a non-tech company (investment bank). I was under no illusion I was of the same caliber of Senior SWE at most tech companies, let alone a FAANG level one. I would have been delighted to have been hired and downleveled to midlevel SWE at a FAANG. I would learn a ton, and the pay would likely have been double what I'd been paid at the bank as a senior SWE. Thank God I made such a transition to a FAANG level company while not being downleveled.
