Hi All!
I am currently a Senior Software Engineer(Backend) with 4 YOE. My current CTC is 21LPA (All Fixed) with additional Yearly bonus. I got a call from Google (Pune/Bangalore/Remote) for Software Engineer - Backend. I have the following doubts but any insights are welcome -
1. Does the lower designation offered make any difference?
2. Kinda ambiguous, but what kind of hike or ballpark pay can I expect?
3. Any similar interviews experiences or focus areas I should prepare for?
I have an offer with Capita plc for 22 LPA for 5 yoe.
It's complete WFH.
Tech stack is spring boot and microservices.
Is it a product based company or a service based company?
How wlb will be in Capita plc?
I have been offered 6A band as senior software engineer, so is 22LPA fair compensation?
Thanks in advance.

Hello!
I finished my final round(s) for a TAM position at Google (GCP) last week and was told by my recruiter that my feedback was great and that I made a solid impression on the team and am "firmly in the running". I was supposed to hear back this week (according to the recruiter) but he just told me that it's still in the process and that I'll have to wait for another week or so.
Is this common at Google ? I have heard they are notorious for being really slow with their hiring process.

You don’t carry a portable monitor with you when you travel?

We get put up in some small spaces too but I dgaf lol. I need 2 monitors wherever I go.
I used to have a TV tuner card in my desktop and could watch tv while using the computer. That was awesome.
I’ll second the KVM, they’re over priced for what they do but they rock.
These days I’m sitting in a couch while my laptop is connected to my TV and my wireless keyboard and mouse are on a TV tray in front of me. The couch folds back which means that I’m pretty chill on calls.
Other perks that I have not made use of but others can. Put a mini fridge next to you. Fill with food an beverages of your choice. You can also get USB coasters to keep drinks warm.
If you can get a dock for your laptop. If you have a modern slim one (with few ports) this gives you a lot more options, in terms of more monitors and USB ports.
