No sorry, this was terribly surprising to me. I am unironically stating that I’m unpleasantly shocked. I would be ashamed to work for these teams as a software engineer.
It’s weird, I always intuitively understood that knowledge workers were screwed in this way by HR re: pay equity, stating market dynamics. But even with my unhealthy level of cynicism, I couldn’t stomach hearing the same thing about gig work. It feels like the sacredness of these jobs as society’s unkind-ish fallback for anyone that needs it has been violated. Nothing is safe :(
- huitzitziltzin 3y agoSoftware engineers are also paid differently by company and within companies. I know you know this. They give you different raises according to a highly imperfect measure of your productivity and value to the firm. Two people with identical tenure and identical titles likely have different salaries on average. None of this should be remotely surprising. And what’s the alternative ???
