... this does not need to happen. Plenty of other companies in the Bay Area pay as well as FB, but without the heartache.
- save_ferris 8y agoBut there's some kind of inertia keeping those employees at FB for some reason. Why put in all the effort to leave for another company to get paid the same? Most people won't do that. Engineers aren't going to start quitting en masse until their compensation is threatened (i.e. the stock irreversibly tanks). In order for that to happen, shareholders need to stage a massive sell-off, which won't likely happen soon due to FOMO.
