I'm LCOL and was told I was hired in right at the top of the bands since they were expecting me to move up to principal in a year or so, and I got 155. You're doing great! Be proud. :)

I'm definitely not going to be moving to principal in a year, though, but that's 100% my choice. I'm tired. I want to explore being a people leader, but I'm cool to chill here for a while and rest my brain, especially because the world is falling apart.

That’s solid for MCOL/HCOL, fantastic for LCOL. I got 150k as a borderline C (almost convinced them to bring me in as an SC) in HCOL.

We don’t have standard timelines for promos, which can be good or bad depending on the situation. I’ve seen folks who push for promos, crush it and have a ton of support get promoted 3 times in 3 years. I’ve also seen other folks not advocate for themselves and be stuck at one level for a while.

I'm sitting on a 130k base + 8% bonus offer there for SC. Only caveat would be I'm at 1 YOE so probably at the bottom of the band.

Salesforce has a great free training program in Trailhead. Good intro to it as a platform. Mid-career switches into it seems to be very possible initially as a Project Manager or BA, the skillset needed to be good are the same regardless of platform.
