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

Which Deloitte? Deloitte Consulting?
I would be hopeful for L5 then. I went from Deloitte to Deloitte Consulting (consultant level), 2 other companies, and came in at L4, promoted 2 years later.
Manager at Deloitte Consulting is a feat and you can certainly aim for L5.
Google leveling isn't based on previous firm and title, especially not across industries. How many yoe? 7-10 may be best for L5.
You’ll get passed for more experienced candidates at L5.
