When the school recruits technical positions in major Internet companies, will the grades be different depending on the academic qualifications?

Hello, the salaries of employees in major Internet companies are generally very high, but the salaries and job requirements for different positions are different. The main basis for grading is not just academic qualifications. Take Tencent as an example. ：

1. The current situation of survival of major Internet companies: Tencent gives lunch breaks, and those born after 1995 save enough money to run away

Not long ago, a 35-year-old employee of Tencent posted a post on a workplace forum. Now that I have earned 10 million, I have planned to leave my job and live a more relaxed life. The founder of Netflix said that the most critical point for achieving the ultimate win for the company and its employees is to attract the best talents with high enough salaries, and then allow them to freely unleash their creativity: “The higher the talent density, the more resources you can provide. The greater the degree of freedom.”

But the problem is that the big domestic manufacturers have already offered high enough salaries and recruited very good employees. Why are there still many post-95s who have saved money? Then run away? This starts with the current Internet hot word "involution".

I don’t know since when, everyone was shocked to realize that the overtime culture of major Internet companies has evolved from 996 to "hard-core struggle": all year round, working more than 12 hours a day, and some lunch breaks They can sleep on a bed, and some even have difficulty going to the toilet...

Internet giants have given many young people hope: high wages, dignity and fairness. For a major Internet company like Tencent, its environment is relatively fair, whether in terms of salary or promotion. It depends on technology and ability, not background, and it develops rapidly. This makes many people feel that it is worth the effort. Therefore, although it is also a 996 industry, the Internet is the most popular.

In the context of high salaries, those born after 1995 choose to save money and run away. Are they using big companies as a springboard or are they really just doing it for their resume?

In fact, many employees of large factories have to choose to "retire" due to competitive pressure. Taking Tencent as an example, T3 (the new level 9) is a threshold. Usually, Goose Factory will strictly require hard targets starting from T2.3 (new level 8) and arrange strict promotion interviews.

Many young people came in for the high salary and to participate in a rapidly growing project, thinking they could learn new things here. In order to be promoted after receiving a high salary, subsequent management has been tightened step by step with development, and "involution" has become the norm in everyone's work. #TENcent#

But high salary inevitably means pressure and responsibility. After all, in education, finance, and law firms, in which industry do highly-paid colleagues not work overtime? Everyone is running towards the same goal, and excellent people are always eager to make progress.

2. How to benchmark the salary of Tencent’s rank system?

In Tencent’s system, the higher the rank, the higher the salary. How to benchmark?

Tencent upgraded its ranks in 2019, but many technical staff are still more familiar with Tencent’s previous rank system. In order to facilitate understanding and communication, I put Tencent's new and old rank systems together to compare with Alibaba. The correspondence between them is shown in the following table:

Alibaba technical personnel basically start from P5. P5 is the starting point for grading fresh graduates, including undergraduate and graduate students, as well as high-potential talents recruited by the society within 2 years of working. Similar to the level of hard currency Alibaba, it is a big hurdle for Tencent to upgrade from T3-3 to T4-1. There are many people who have stayed at T3-3 for more than 5 years, and there are also people who have stayed at T4-1 for 7 years. Once you reach the T4 level, you are an expert engineer from Tencent.

As for job salary, Tencent’s salary structure is generally 12 1 1 = 14 salary, but you can usually get 16-20 salary. The year-end bonus depends on the department's profitability and is generally 3 months. There is a big salary and stock gap between different business lines within Tencent. Tencent's game team's salary and year-end bonus are generally relatively high, while Tencent Cloud's stock share is higher than that of the game team.

Information such as working years is based on the situation of most people and is not an absolute standard.

For example, Alibaba P6 and Tencent T3 "require 2 to 5 years of work" because most people can reach this level after 2 to 5 years of work, but there may be some powerful people who can reach it in 5 years of work.

Take Tencent’s recent recruitment as an example. Goose Factory offers big data development engineers with 3-5 years of experience a monthly salary of up to 50,000, which is the level of Goose Factory’s T3-2 rating. In other Big data development engineers in the 30k-60k position recruited by major companies only need 1-3 years of work experience. But the work experience here is not a standard, it is just a reference. 1-3 years of big data development experience only shows that the work experience requirements for the position are not high.

This situation occurs due to market demand and talent gaps. Nowadays, whether it is NetEase Cloud Music, Douyin APP, or various video recommendations, they are all based on big data calculations. At present, there are only 460,000 people who meet the skill requirements, which is far from the 1.5 million gap. If you want to enter a large company like Huawei and work with a high salary, this is a very good choice.

I hope my answer will be helpful to you!
