Heck it's probably a lower number than most people think too. Every always says 1 million or 10 million or something super ridiculous, but ~$500K/yr is life changing for most people and when you're looking at that over say ten years... you would be crazy to not sell out.
- dmourati 8y agoBut you can make that ~500k/yr at a half dozen (at least!) other companies without compromising yourself and selling out. I think FB has a reputation as paying at or above the market max. It's not like the other FANGs or unicorns are slouches in the comp department.
- lawnchair_larry 8y agoThey are not paying most of their engineers close to 500k/yr.
- malvosenior 8y ago$500k a year in Palo Alto is not a lot of money. I don't think you could even buy a standard family house earning that much there.
- dmourati 8y agoNot true at all. Source, earned less than that much, bought a house in MV in the last 1.5 years.
- kamaal 8y ago>>you would be crazy to not sell out Its not exactly sell out. What exactly are you doing writing code at other companies any way? Writing code for Mahatma Gandhi?
- PavlovsCat 8y agoIf it's not a sell out, how can it be "selling ones soul for the right price"?
