CL of Principal Engineers and Senior Principal Engineers

Serious question as I am trying to decide if I should resign or stay. Really appreciate insight from those who know and are not speculating.

@dz I suspect you are right. No reason to have a senior principal at EMHC if there aren’t any young engineers at EMHC.

The only 30+ SPE I have seen was when they first rolled it out and demoted a chief to SPE lol.

Thank you everyone for the responses. Sounds like reaching 30+ even as a senior principal is challenging.

Can confirm range from 27-29 - I am a CL 27 principal. It largely depends on the age (oops, sorry, YEE) you get the assignment. If you are on the younger side you will be lower CL as you are not yet eligible for promotion to 28 even with Outstanding performance. As mentioned, SPE is typically up to 31.

This is generally accurate. I don’t believe the CL comes with the title. People get the title then get the CL promotion later or when the advancement guide says so

Principal 26-29 ( typically 27-28)
Senior 28 -31 (typically 29)

There's no way any principal is CL 26, people are talking BS in here.

CLs were decoupled from titles 5-6 years ago. Allows for different (lower) CLs to be hired for the same role
