Sounds to me like if they own you 24 hrs/day, you should get paid 3x normal wages.

- nine_k 6y agoDo they? I suppose that Apple is one of the FAANG which are known for their rather-above-market compensation packages.
- nailer 6y agoNo they don't. It's nowhere near 3x .
- winter_blue 6y agoWell, they are pretty close to that then. A friend of mine recently joined Google as a L5 SWE, and is making around 400k a year (he's on the upper band for L5 - couldn't make the cut for L6). That's about 3x what very good engineers in high cost-of-living cities in the US normally make. I'd say 135k is probably the median for very good engineers at the average company. (Of course, you could argue whether they're "very good", but I'd say they are, while noting that Google et al is obviously a different caliber, but one partially achievable with many hours of grinding on leetcode/hckerrank/etc.)
