Wow. $18 an hour, for someone with 5 years experience and a masters degree in early childhood education. I know she deserved the L2 salary of $21, but even that

Wow. $18 an hour, for someone with 5 years experience and a masters degree in early childhood education. I know she deserved the L2 salary of $21, but even that is terrible! A software intern will make almost double that with barely a data structures class under their belt!
Seems like Google is no better than anyone else when it comes to using letting "market rate" limit the income opportunities of workers in "pink collar" jobs like this. Google could easily give a decent 55-60k salary to each skilled education professional that works full-time in their pre-k program. The fact that they would play games with this woman's economic well-being over a petty 3$/hr shows that they've coasted on their reputation as a good place to work for much longer than deserved. Hope they pay out well for this.
- mc32 9y agoUnfortunately that's pretty much the going rate, as I understand it from people who've been in that field. Some of the better ones may go up to 21-ish... Yes, in the bay area with years of experience.
