Is the very competitive salary over 300k USD?
That's what's competitive in the Bay Area or Seattle for senior talent. While there are benefits to Canada as you mentioned, for a lot of people they don't make up a 50% pay cut.
- vonmoltke 8y ago> Is the very competitive salary over 300k USD? How many jobs are actually paying that? The salaries posted on the "Who Is Hiring?" threads don't corroborate that, nor does my experience in NYC (which is supposed to be on par with those areas).
- systemBuilder 8y agoGoogle has at least 1000 employees in the Bay area in the $300k+ income bracket. The entry-level job at Google pays like a staff engineer at a mortal company.
- vonmoltke 8y agoSo, 1000 out of a few hundred thousand employed as software engineers in the area?
- lhorie 8y agoNeither do sites like Glassdoor and Paysa. Maybe if you count signing bonuses + equity bonuses. But those aren't salary per se. With that said, 200k wouldn't be that unreasonable as an expectaction at a senior level or above at a household name tech company.
