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.
TC: 270K

Look into the technical program manager role or engagement manager roles
TAM, PMO, BD. All depends what you want to do and how well you network. I've seen a L4 TAM move over to BD and his career took off after that
TAM? PMO? BD? what does these abbreviations stand for. pardon my ignorance
Which AWS certs?
Developer and solution arch associste
TAM: Technical Account Manager. PM: Program Manager. BD: Business Development
Never really interacted with them to be honest. Mostly just Program Managers
