The comparison to Disney and Amazon is because their products are in competition, not because they pay similar wages

  Amazon is also known for paying high tech salaries. And also known for being a shit place to work. It sucks, but they pay for it.

    Netflix is famous for paying absolute top-tier engineering salaries. Amazon is pretty middle-of-the-pack, or possibly slightly lower (hard to separate from the COL of being mostly Seattle-based).

      No they're not, at least here in California. Maybe you're thinking of warehouse jobs. Several people from my work have come over from Amazon, and we constantly interview people who either take Amazon over us (citing more $), or are trying to get away from Amazon but they end up getting a big counter offer from Amazon and staying with them.

        i guess it depends on perspective. i’ve had multiple offers from them for a swe role and it was drastically under my other offers. among fang they pay the lowest if honestly be making less than half my current total comp if i’d accepted any of them

        On Blind they're famous for paying the least out of any FAANG company and having the fewest perks. I have met some talented engineers who work there though.
