- r32a_ 8y agoNot really, I rather be paid less but work remote and have more freedom with my time and where I work.
- spenczar5 8y agoTo be explicit, you're saying the only metric that matters (when we're ranking software engineers) is how well-paid a software engineer is?
- solveit 8y agoWhen we're discussing income, that seems reasonable.
- soup10 8y agopeople working on new systems and tech are generally better programmers than people hacking away at enterprise spaghetti at a big corp. big corp jobs like that pay better for less work though.
- el_cid 8y agoTo be fair - that's not the point he was making. As we were discussing income - that's the only metric that matters in the discussion at hand.
