Any examples of how much 'below market rates' their salaries are? I was under the impression it was on par or slightly below. The Googles/Facebooks/MS are usual

Any examples of how much 'below market rates' their salaries are? I was under the impression it was on par or slightly below. The Googles/Facebooks/MS are usually well above market rate.

As of 2012, their salary cap was 127k for all employees--even the CEO: Karp: https://www.quora.com/How-does-Palantir-attract-talent-if-it-caps-its-salary-at-127-000 https://www.quora.com/How-does-Palantir-attract-talent-if-it... http://www.washingtonian.com/articles/people/killer-app/ http://www.washingtonian.com/articles/people/killer-app/ As of 2014, their salary cap was 137k & 15k bonus: http://www.nytimes.com/2014/06/01/business/unlocking-secrets-if-not-its-own-value.html?_r=0 http://www.nytimes.com/2014/06/01/business/unlocking-secrets... Perhaps those numbers are average or even below average for the Bay Area. Furthermore remember those are global caps, so unless you are in the top pay grade in the company, you'd likely make less, I assume.

  What's insane is that I'm pretty sure Palantir still pays one of the top intern salaries at $7k/month ($42 an hour) - so it's surprising their full time salaries don't follow that trend. http://www.forbes.com/sites/susanadams/2014/03/07/the-highest-paying-internships/ http://www.forbes.com/sites/susanadams/2014/03/07/the-highes...
