Is Google the end game?
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

Generally speaking, you must have AT LEAST the number of role relevant years to be considered, and most times you actually need more. It’s pretty common at Google for people to come in “under leveled”, relative to their total YOE. Their hiring pool is so large/competitive, they typically won’t entertain candidates that do not meet the minimum YOE requirements. That being said, it doesn’t hurt to apply and see what happens, especially with a referral!
Thank you very much for your comment :) It's very useful and appreciated!
I also wanted to add that my partner works for Google and can refer me. However, I'm choosing very wisely which jobs to even apply for since most (if not all) require 3-4 years of experience. Just wanted a stranger's opinion if I should even try applying for a few in which I match in, in exception to the years of experience =).
