I have a PM interview at PayPal and am trying to prepare for the question around salary. What range should I ask for? Im currently a PM Lead or Sr. Product Manager at my current job so think that translates to a T27 at PayPal. As a POC and a woman I know we historically are paid less so I want to be prepared not to fall into the trap of asking less than my worth. Please help!

As a sr PM just starting in my role ( at a 10year old startup in marketing tech, and profitable) , i think you should be asking for 175k base and expect a bonus at sign on and EOY.

That sounds fair. Is that for a Mgr. of a Product team? I typed my first message wrong.

I usually just try to avoid giving any numbers. I wait for them to say a range first, but if they ask, I usually ask them for their budget for the position.

Thanks! I followed that advice. They told me it’s a “T27 range.” I looked it up on the internet and still getting wide numbers. Hopefully I get more clarity.

Clarification: I have a interview as a Manager* in Product Management.

Aren't they having layoffs and a hiring freeze? That's what I heard.

The role I’m applying for a Subsidiary of PayPal so that may be what’s different.

I think you should be asking for something around $130K-$150K.

I would ask for no less than 140k.
