Hey friends - find myself potentially interviewing for a Google TAM role. What is the salary for an L5 level and typically how many YOE required as I am seeing mixed things on Glassdoor and levels.

Coming from consulting I would like to stay at TC of 260k but not sure if feasible. 7yrs YOE in mgmt consulting.

Thank you in advance

COL matters. HCOL you will be at/above $300K.

This isn’t accurate. We have different job ladders and aren’t all paid the same despite being the same level so folks in other roles may be confused.

You’re not near 300k until L6.
L5 TAM is 260-280.
L4 is 220-240

Hey all, just got an offer to join as an L4 tam in the DC area. Any idea on what a reasonable TC package would look like?

My base went up $4K after 3 rounds of negotiation, but my equity when up by 2X. However, this was pre-covid, when the purse strings were not as tightly controlled

Hmm you’re confused by what you’re seeing on Glassdoor and levels? Not sure you’re going to make at G if you get in. You should also be able to easily see that L5 TC > the 260 you mentioned.

I hear new mba’s making 220k in non-highest COL, how come u only at 260 after 7 yoe?

I mean that data point is current tho they did delay start dates by like 6+ months

260k total comp (base salary, bonus and equity) is easily achievable for L5 in NYC and the Bay Area. Focus on passing the interviews if you interview, not on comp being too low.

EASILY is a strong word. Google is trimming roles and budget for new headcount.

Doable, yes. But I wouldn’t anchor on that number as a make or break.

They always try to downlevel you and start at the bottom of the comp band. Unless you’re a stellar candidate or have another offer in hand, it’s pretty tough to negotiate in the TAM role specifically.

Also why TAM? That’s not strat, heard more like tech support in a sales context

Yeah that was my thought it might be more L4 role - just hoping that is 225+

I am in the process of gathering more info, but it is tempting to ask about pivoting into product management. What would you do in this situation?
