New Hampshire. But commuting distance to Boston, MA since I live on the border and Boston is pretty close to the border.
I started as a Senior Software Engineer and kept getting promoted but not getting any higher pay. As a Senior Software Engineer in 2013 it was great pay. CTO in 2017... not so much.
For various reasons I'm eating the lower pay though. It's rough but I'm ok with it for now.
- avasylev 9y agoIf you are ok commuting to Cambridge MA, you can get the SF figure +/- you cited as developer (assuming proper skills/experience) and still live in NH. Not a great commute, but I know a few folks who commute from NH. If you're interested, my team is hiring :)
- darkarmani 9y agoI'm just moving out of the cambridge area, but still have friends in the area. Can you share your company name?
- avasylev 9y agoFor my team you can email me at "jobs.av (at) outlook.com", but you can see from glassdor same salaries at Microsoft,Gooogle,Amazon are hiring in Kendall square.
- figers 9y agoCTO out of Brookline, MA Do you attend any CTO meetups in the area?
- pc86 9y agoI make within $5k of you and live in semi-suburban/semi-rural Pennsylvania (not near Philly or Pittsburgh!). COL is in the high 80's where national median is 100. I'm not even in management. My boss is in the $130-140 range and his boss is probably $180-200. (Glassdoor is a beautiful thing) For your retirement account alone you need to get a better job with something at least approaching a market rate salary.
