@@nishthajoshi3234 No one has ever mentioned where they go to school. Your school may get you in the door but your school can't take those technical interviews for you. I go to a public university with a decent comp sci program but nothing fancy, I promise. I also had no references.
@@fidelhen6361 yeah makes sense, also so you know about Microsoft student learn ambassador program? Do they give you return offers once you got selected in that program?
The upper limit for software engineers is wild, especially once that equity starts appreciating over time. These were averages, so naturally some will make a little less and others may make a lot more.
You'll be spending $40,000+ a year for rent. If you don't want to spend 2 hours a day commuting or living in a slum or if you need more than 1BR to house your kids. There's a reason Microshaft no longer attracts anything but the lowest skilled software engineers... Their pay is dog💩 compared to Amazon or Google in the Seattle area. Then you have to live in Seattle as well. 20 years ago that was great, but now you have to deal with a city that is in a freefall race to become a third world city.
I used to work as a vendor on the Redmond MS campus in a different field, and am curious about becoming a SDE. But I just feel too old (38yrs old) to learn a new skill to work in this field. Don’t even know where to begin. Now living in Chicagoland.
Start by building a small personal project could be as simple as a restaurant picker for when you are feeling indecisive. If you enjoy coding then there are boot camps, pick one that has a good job placement record and go for it 😊
With the current layoff of 10,000 employees, some are not doing so hot. Most were contract workers lasting only 18 months...following in the footsteps of Bill Gates when he first started Microsoft keeping temps for over 2 years without bonus or overtime.
Hi ,can you make a video about how we can find a job in big companies such as facebook ,instagram or microsoft with having no experience in work areas . ı mean after finishing school as a engineer ,how can we be accepted by these companies . All these companies wants at least 2 years experince
The chances of you working at a FAANG company with 0 years of experience along with no education in the area would be low. I could a video about how I would do it, but you'd likely need to start somewhere smaller first.
@@CodyEngelCodesTHANK YOU for responding my comment. ı would be really happy ıf you take a video about it .Also in the video can you explain the affects of applying from different departments and countries. I am Living in Turkey and my department is EEE . İs it good or bad thing when applying these companies.
Software Engineer l60 here at Microsoft, 120k Base, 25k annual stock, 25k signing 10% annual base bonus. 6k relocation. Also we get more like 25 days off not 15. We get 15 days of PTO and 10 holidays. So more like 25 days. Also as for software goes we get 2400 dollars free in software yearly that’s Microsoft. One last thing they also pay off 1200 dollars of student loans a year, and give you 1200 dollars a year to spend on hobbies/leisure. ++ pretty much free advanced education(11k per semester paid)

Nice, it’s a really good career path especially if you can start out early. Save as much as you can and you can probably retire by the time you’re 30 😅
ESPP? It lets you purchase shares in a company at a discount, so essentially extra compensation if you can afford to stash cash for a bit. Every company does it a little differently so I'm trying to figure out how to make the video.
@@rajitmittal1345 you only get to contribute a certain % of money. The money you contribute is held into escrow until the buying period comes. The shares are then bought and assigned to you, so you don't buy the shares yourself and you don't get to contribute an infinite amount to this.
Now that Microsoft is checked off the list, which companies should I cover next? 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
Amazon pls!!!
@@safalyaghoshroy2405 Amazon was actually our previous video, it’s in our “Software Salaries” playlist 🙂
google
Google was the first in this series 🤗
How about Verizon? Or T-Mobile
This is great info! One slight correction: food is not free at the Microsoft cafeterias (unlike Google)

please make a detailed video on financial benifits like 401k and roth . i am pretty confused about that thing .
Financial benefits, my favorite thing to talk about ☺️
I got a return offer from MSFT and this is amazing information before signing :) keep it up Cody!
Glad to hear it!

Ok I think I need to refocus my efforts on getting a MSFT role. 4th Quarter 2021 resolution
You got this 👏👏👏👏👏
I'm sorry but this seems a bit low for the Seattle area... They will likely give you more stock grants than that along with a hefty sign on bonus.

They have Microsoft on their resume.. and know how to program. They will be fine.
Great vlog 👍🏾
Back in 1975 I told Bill Gates that there was no money in software...
Now there's no money outside of software.
@@CodyEngelCodes Lol. I had two years of computer science at UoWaterloo (of Fortran IV with WATFOR fame) in 1970,1 and have been into hardware since.
That 15% product discount for employees sure will go a long way for the Holo Lens & the other expensive devices they sell
I forgot about Holo Lens 😭
Do you know anything about WFH? Can I work at Microsoft in US but live in another country ?
I do not but given the current state of the world I'm sure WFH is plentiful.
Can you lease make a video about Mega Backdoor ROTH IRA? Thanks!
Added it to the list!
Microsoft compensation is so low compared to any midsized company in Silicon valley.
It's all relative, they are known to have really great benefits. I'd rather take a higher salary but great benefits are nothing to sneeze at.
61 is also SDE II btw 61-62 = SDE II
Thanks, Microsoft really likes to spread out those levels.
Yup. Can confirm :)
It's 15% discount on Hardware (Xbox, etc.) and 80% discount on Software (Windows, Office etc.)
Dude you’re the best.
You're the best!
You are off . Level 61 is SDE-2 and so is 62. 67 is partner .

You should do a video about mega backdoor Roth Ira and employee stock purchase plan.
Sounds good, I’ll add em to the list!
Ade the yearly bonuses paid out in a lump sum?
Yes, cash bonus in given in one paycheck
How much they give monthly??
Take the numbers from this video and divide by 12 to get an approximation.

Cool, thanks
cool
Great info! Thanks again.
