Got an offer within Product Ops (Mt View) for L4, 145k base, 15% bonus, 185k equity (33/33/22/12), 15 sign on. One competing offer (that is lower) and only MBB promotion to Engagement manager in a few months as leverage point. Any fish guidance on how the offer fares up / how to proceed / what comp I should push for?

This is a solid offer but still ask for $200k and $20k sign on

I was close to making AP and came in at L5 (top end of the pay band). 18 months in and the road to L6 is still a year away and my comp has already maxed out.

like

Wait for EM and leverage that for a better offer in a year or two if you really want to jump. L4 to L5 is a 2 year process, and if you come in at L5 with EM level $ you can probably finesse your way to the top of the pay band.

Google doesn’t negotiate base much so target equity. Like G2 said, shoot for 200k in equity

like

G3: Market is very different today than when you switched. I am a second year EM and got L6 at G.

OP: Make EM before you switch. The offer seems really low.

Interested to hear about your experience leading to landing the role. Also in ProdOps and considering a switch. Thanks!

When considering pay....take into account life style and hours spent working. You will get a huge pay increase based in hours worked

OP, I’m interviewing for a similar role - how was the interview process?

OP, what was your final offer?

GCA Questions Help

Hi everyone!
I've had 2 rounds of interviews at Google (UK) for a non-tech role in Platforms & Ecosystems (L4/L5). Recruiter told me that I've been selected for the final rounds (GCA + Leadership Interview). From his feedback, one thing they wanted me to improve on was the GCA Questions. Would anyone have any tips on how to prepare for these? I've checked some of Jeff Sipe videos online but would appreciate any support! I find GCA quite stressful...
Thx

I’ve put myself up for L4 promo this cycle. Assuming I get it, what would be the best next steps to optimize for long-term growth/TC?

My understanding is that L5->L6 is extremely painful at
Google. It may be easier to leave for a handful of years and gain managerial experience before returning.

L4->L5 is less challenging; however, I’m under the impression I can do this quicker at another company (if I leave after being freshly promo’d) AND get higher TC.
