These are not salaries. It’s total comp. My total comp. calculating pension and benefits in the Great White North is similar, and that’s govt. to boot. Total comp is always a highly misleading number.
- pxx 7y agoYour pension and benefits are not immediately liquid and wouldn't be included in this comparison. RSUs from publicly listed companies, on the other hand...
- eclipxe 7y agoThese numbers aren't including benefits (medical, dental, 401k match, etc). These are salary, RSU, bonus.
- andreilys 7y agoReally? I’m surprised. Every offer I’ve gotten in Canada has been 20-30% of US offers (and this is in high CoL cities like Vancouver and Toronto)
- bostonfincs 7y agoThis is total comp outside pension/benefits. So solely salary + bonus + RSU. Only income earned directly not benefits.
- joshuamorton 7y agoIf you added benefits to these, it would likely be an additional 50K a year (healthcare, 401k match, other incidentals).
