I'm not convinced it's useful to convert the currencies anyway. I can't get paid in US dollars for this job. If I wanted to get paid in USD, I'd be getting a different job.
Or are there any cases where a single job market spans two or more currencies?
- arctangent 15y agoSome larger companies have offices in more than one country. Examples would be Google, Microsoft, Facebook, most banks, etc. Perhaps it would be useful to be able to view the results in any currency you desired. But already we're entering scope-creep territory :-)
- timrobinson 15y agoRight - if you cared enough about looking at anonymous salary information across different countries, you could just use Glassdoor.com.
- arctangent 15y agoThe point of this app is that you share a link with your peers, whether they're based in your office or in an office in a different country. This is a bit different from completely anonymised data from statistically similar market segments (and possibly more useful, since people at the same company are likely to have similar perks and benefits etc.)
- dtby 15y agoThere are at least 4 different currencies being used to pay people in my office. Sometimes two different currencies to the same person. As each portion is (or can be) negotiated separately, this isn't merely a conversion question. Also, our bonuses are denominated in USD and then converted (or not) into whichever currency we prefer.
