Depends on the company. Mine is 100% remote since COVID, has generous benefits, a strict 9-5 M-F culture, and plenty of interesting work to do as much (or as little) as I have an appetite for. I make maybe 10% under market rate, but it would take at least a 50% raise to get me to leave. That's never happening, as it would be well over what anyone short of FAANG would pay for a senior dev, so there are definitely intangibles about a work environment that are worth more to me than another $15-$20k a year.
- learc83 5y agoRight but there's an assumption of all else being equal when making a comparison like that. Obviously you can get away with paying below market rates if you provide some other benefits to make up for it.
- pessimizer 5y agoWhat if there are identical "intangibles" at the place offering you a 10% raise?
- omgwtfbbq 5y agoUnless you know someone inside the company I'd guess that's pretty hard to judge from the outside or through a few interviews.
