Might I ask how you came to that conclusion?
My remarks assumed a rough US national average. The enterprise billing rate for top SV talent certainly exceeds ~$144/hr.
- cerberusss 8y agoI made a guesstimate based on the rate of a US freelancer I employed in the past. However, I just checked his most recent bill, then multiplying that by ~1800 hours (1 year), indeed it almost hits the 300k. So I have to admit my comment doesn't make much sense.
- metaphor 8y agoThanks for the clarification. My estimate was based on 2080 hrs/yr; indirect costs such as insurance coverage, paid annual/sick leave, 401(k) matching, and operating costs that one might associate with a large software distribution. Probably worth noting that the average freelancer bills a lot lower than typical for-profit enterprise.
