For software engineers, the expectation is to get to L4 eventually (new grads get hired at L3). I've not seen any concrete guidance on what "eventually" means

For software engineers, the expectation is to get to L4 eventually (new grads get hired at L3). I've not seen any concrete guidance on what "eventually" means in this context.
This used to be L5 until a few years back.

Even the old system, where there was a formal expectation for every SWE to grow to L5, wasn't uniformly enforced. One person I know joined as an L4 SWE twelve or so years ago; they're still an L4 SWE.
