A recruiter told me the base salary for a Program Manager role at Facebook (based out of Austin) and I feel the base is too low. (91k) Has anyone received / heard something similar?

I know but I was expecting it to be a bit higher 😂

Have around the same YOE and got quoted a very similar number (90k base) while interviewing for a business integrity associate position based in Austin so that sounds on par.

I’d be more worried about the role than the pay, a lot of these are back back office type things and may not be interesting or have great upside.

Program Manager isn’t really an official level. What’s the level of the role? My base is 150k albeit in the bay as a Program Manager with 3 YOE.

Sounds pretty ops focused, seems like it would be a similar band so 95k for L3 and 125k for L4 potentially

If this is 2 yoe that sounds about right, especially considering there is likely additional comp in bonus and stock that will bring the tc to 110-130. That’s very good for an MCOL market and substantially than what you get at many more local Austin companies.

smart

I agree

I recently declined an L5 offer from FB, security engineer role. Base was 175K, 10K sign on, 100k RSUs. I have 9 YOE, and the position and team was relatively new to FB which could have been a good deal, but I had another offer that I couldn’t pass up from a former client!

Good for you! I’m glad you got a better offer elsewhere

Wow that is surprising. How many YOE

Wow that's low

So many folks that are Program Mgrs are straight out of UG; that sounds about right if you’re like 2 YoE.

It’s hard to trust the partners/leadership when they want us to return to office as being better when we increase offshoring?

DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.
