For all other countries we have competitive pay bands based on market standards.

Individual compensation decisions are based on a number of factors including experience level skillset and balancing internal equity relative to peers at the company. We expect the majority of the candidates who are offered roles at our company to fall healthily throughout the range based on these factors. We recognize that the person we hire may be less experienced (or more senior) than this job description as posted. If that ends up being the case the updated salary range will be communicated with you as a candidate.
