Surprisingly low salaries for a major bank. £35k for a London-based SRE?
- jborden13 4y agoI'm guessing this is one reason companies don't like posting salaries. Not saying it's wrong or right...
- trhoad 4y agoAt least I know within 3 seconds that I can't afford to apply, rather than investing hours to realise I've wasted my time.
- richardwhiuk 4y agoLow salaries for security engineers as well....
- LloydsBankingGT 4y agoHi, thanks for your interest. Salaries are set at a team level and align to a grade structure. That specific SRE role is open across the UK, so it's likely that it was setup at a regional pay scale not a London one. SRE roles pop up every few weeks, and some are specific to locations. If you view some of our previous "who's hiring" posts, they will give you an idea of the salary ranges: https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=LloydsBankingGT https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=LloydsBankingGT
- tfsh 4y agoI notice roles such as "Lead Quality Engineer" in London starting at 60k. Given the scale at which Lloyds operates and the absolute requirement to have a high quality consumer experience, the salary (for a lead role!) almost seems farcical.
