If it’s comp, then rejections would happen at initial pay band discussion or final offer. Numbers on Glassdoor for us look good. But instead I have very few leads whose work is interesting or who do well in the interview process. Frequently, they want to move to SF anyway. They tell the recruiter that.
Honestly, comp numbers are past the point on Maslow’s pyramid where they can get someone to care. If you’re not going to get a guy for $350k but you can get him for $700k, he’s not planning on sticking around and he can’t produce $1.5m of value in his one year that he’ll stay for the payout. Few people are like that. It doesn’t make sense to optimize for that.
- closeparen 8y agoI would expect this from people who have not experienced SF yet. The opportunity I'm suggesting is among people who are currently in SF and disillusioned with it.
- scarejunba 8y agoThat’s fair, and I get it. I just don’t have that many people like that working with me and I work with people from 22 to 45 years of age. Seriously, I’ve had people move from here to Texas or Washington, and they keep the straight bump in wages that comes from not paying state tax. But that’s a single digit number out of a 100+ team. It isn’t helping expand the team.
