Exactly. It's really pointless to compare a $20k/yr position to a $200k/yr position, especially based on things like "having flexible schedules". The worker pool and expectations are leagues apart.
Consider: The In-And-Out worker would need 10 sick days to equal the pay of a single sick day for the tech worker.
Maybe it's a nice place to work compared to McDonalds, or other similar places... but trying to imply that people are happier working there than FAANG is just silly.
- shadowgovt 7y agoHappiness is only partially correlated with money; depending on how the people who answer the survey evaluate their personal happiness, it's completely possible for the job to offer fulfillment through avenues other than income. FAANG employees get paid way more than In-N-Out employees, but some of them are also expected to carry pagers that wake them up at 4AM. That's never an expectation of an In-N-Out employee.
- saagarjha 7y agoI'd think that the work hours of an In-N-Out employee are generally a lot less flexible than that of most engineers.
