Video

Haha altho many in the video are Asian, it’s def not a pre-requisite to get into Google ;).

Haha interesting observation! Well I guess they are engineers and most are not used to being on camera :)

Not all are if you watch the entire video ;)

By insane, do you mean higher pay :)?

It’s per year!

@@FinanceWithChi Yeah, now i get it, i asked because i wanted to work with google.. well there are years to come since now, im only 13 years old, who wants to work as a software engineer.. the only problem is that im not that good in maths, but ill try to improve!! Thanks for replying! Subbed!

@@OrigamiSpotLikeSubSharesoftware engineering requires coding, not maths

@@McFlashh but, we should be good at maths ig..

99% of the obsessed people may have no clue, but the top talented software engineers definitely know why they want to work at Google and 'what Google actually does'. Compensation is definitely a point, but also technology, work environment etc.

100%!

Do you mean Meta salaries? Good news I already posted another video about that. Check out my Tech video series!

Glad it motivates you!!

Not by choice :). I definitely wanna be able to interview more folks of all groups!

Good suggestion! I asked this tho and most would not want to be recorded :(

We tried, but most people would not want to provide an answer when they’re asked that. We can ask this again in next videos!

Can i get contact of meta employees cuz i need help ​@@FinanceWithChi

You can look it up on levels.fyi!

Based on info in the video, what do you think 😉?

Interesting observation. FYI I also met non-Indian/Asian devs. But not many were willing to be interviewed on camera.

The pool of Indian/Asian engineers is huge compared to American engineers. I think a ratio of 10-20:1. So naturally most top talented software engineers come from Asia or have Asian background.

Yeah unfortunately pay gaps exist. That’s why I advocate for salary transparency and negotiation

I interviewed anyone who’s willing to show up on camera. Would love to have more diversity in my videos!

Be lucky to find the ONE Black at Google.

L4 is software engineer 1 at Google :). Senior level is more L5/L6 and their pay is def higher than this range

I’d love to but no one in the 40-50s was available for the interviews

People 40-50 years old are rare at Google and work in more senior positions. They don't give interviews for several reasons. Of course they won't discuss their own compensation.

Omg thank you so much for the encouraging words!! What type of content are you interested about :)? The salary transparency or personal finance tips or others?

@@FinanceWithChi actually i am student from india and want go USA for job opportunities in software(IT) industry What to do fr that? I am so confused i should do masters or find job there without masters AND I am not aware that what to do to GO for USA ,I HAVE NO IDEA FOR abroad like how much money required, how to live there, and even i am not even fluent in English so how to discard language barrier there ??? I so noob at this topic pls help me out for this 😭

I also started as an international student. All I can say is reach out & ask for advice from people who have done it from India and online. Most importantly, believe in yourself. Good luck ❤!

Yes em :)! I’m glad you find the content helpful

@@FinanceWithChi Em bất ngờ chị vì chị vừa xinh xắn, vừa giỏi giang ạ!

​@@FinanceWithChiEm mong có cơ hội được inbox để hỏi chị Chi một chút ạ!

​@@drcheesekongWhy are you surprised??

I interviewed anyone who’s willing to be interviewed. The campus we went to happen to have many Asian folks

About 70% of Google engineers are from Asian origin.

The pay gap tends to be bigger in tech.

But not salary for a software engineering position. Even in UK it's much higher than 30K £.

I know some Google engineers without a CS degree so it’s possible :)

Congrats :)

🤔 which red stuff are you seeing?! Not sure if I am looking the same thing you’re referencing

They are definitely very hard working :)!

My white colleagues find so many excuse to say sth/someone is blocking them, while my Chinese colleagues fix them immediately, even not mentioning those bullshit in the Standup. People like hiring smart and hardworking than smart and lazy.

​@@Kc-nn8mnEspecially hard working. Non-Asian Americans are lazy compared to Asians and Asian-Americans.

Aren’t we all dreamers ;)?

@@FinanceWithChi my dreams are only mine 😊

You dream up a new Google.

Pay transparency gives you an idea of how much you should expect to get paid on average for the level of your job. If you are a rockstar you should def negotiate for more pay. I actually posted a video talking about tips to do just that.

Thank you Na!! 💛💛

Tích cực comment ủng hộ chị nè 😀

Definitely not! They have other roles like Product/Program Manager, Sales, Analyst, Technician, etc other than software engineer. I’d love to include more role diversity in the interview but didn’t have much luck in the location we went to.

Yes there are! A lot of my former colleagues started out as an entry level

@@FinanceWithChi Thank You 🫶🏽 I will look into some positions. I live in NYC.

I will do my best! My goal is to include more diversity in these interviews, but it’s not easy sometimes. We literally interviewed anyone there willing to be filmed.

🫶🏾🫶🏾 thank you

Lmao

POC? You mean Blacks? There are nearly no Blacks at Google.

You can simply open a brokerage account in Vanguard or Fidelity and buy index funds that track S&P 500 like VOO.

Well good thing is there are many other roles in tech that pay well and don’t require coding :)
