Not to nitpick, but $75 per hour x 40 hours per week x 52 weeks per annum = $156,000, which isn't exactly peanuts. According to levels.fyi, it's a bit less than entry-level for FANG companies, but still a reasonably high salary that sits squarely between E3 and E4 (Senior Software Eng) pay grades for Walmart Labs. It would be a role I would consider testing for the easier DP questions.
- playing_colours 6y agoIt is a contract position for a senior engineer, not a permanent role.
- MoBattah_ 6y ago$156k in SF for a contractor is garbage pay. You have to pay for all your own expenses. Maybe you'd net $110k after all taxes and expenses. There's real contractors and then there's fake contractors which should always be called staff augmentation. No real senior software dev contractor would accept $75/hour in the Bay area. You're looking at minimum $100/hour. Although, "fake contractors" or staff augmentation, those can be paid $75/hour or less.
- perl4ever 6y agoIt looks like median wages for a programmer in SF are around $55/hr according to the BLS. So if I was hiring, I'd assume median plus 1/3 for a contractor is plenty. https://www.bls.gov/oes/current/oes_41860.htm https://www.bls.gov/oes/current/oes_41860.htm
