I moved out of a high CoL area to somewhere I actually enjoy living. And brought the salary band with me.
No chance I'd work at Buffer, given they'd halve my salary because of my zip code. Other remote jobs don't. No brainier.
- graton 9y agoThey state they pay 85% for Average CoL area and 75% for Low CoL area. So they wouldn't halve a developer's salary who moved from San Francisco to somewhere else. Working in San Francisco gets 100%. Now I don't know how their SF salaries compare to other companies though.
- pc86 9y ago@imsofuture said they'd halve their salary, which is likely true. Every remote salary calculator I've ever used, even being generous with my qualifications and the vague dropdowns like "below average or above average experience" gives me a rate 15-40% below what I'm making now, even for the next level up.
