Ask yourself: even if you disagree with the parent's numbers, do these numbers from Glassdoor make sense to you?
A friend of mine has a younger sister who was offered $120k base salary out of college to work at Google in NYC, and another 30k in RSUs. She's told me this compares favorably with what friends of hers were offered at similar companies on the east and west coasts.
I'm going to avoid a discussion about merit, but suffice it to say that I believe seniors PMs working at Amazon for a few years are far closer to $600k than $100k.
- ryandrake 9y agoNumbers at Glassdoor are at least based on some kind of aggregate data. You can argue about their methodology, but I would trust it over "that guy on HN who swears his brother's nephew's roommate knows one guy who makes $600K at Google."
- dsacco 9y agoSure, that's fair. I was specifically attacking Glassdoor and how low their numbers are.
- oculusthrift 9y agowell one: seattle companies pay around 10 pct less because of state taxes. two: I got an offer from Amazon when I graduated and it was very low compared to other companies. Only around 100k whereas other companies offered more than your friend's little sister.
