Don’t use Glassdoor for tech. They are almost always incorrect since they are salary focused. Use levels.fyi which understands total compensation

- taurath 5y agoCorrect. And assume levels is old data at this point. And don’t be shocked, people really make that much.

- chana_masala 5y agoBlind can be another good resource
- 100-xyz 5y agoI discovered Blind recently and agree it's an awesome resource.
- gentleman11 5y agoThat site names salaries almost 50-100k higher than what I see on other salary sites in Canada. Does the site only aggregate top paying companies, or is the Canadian tech sector actually way more robust than I thought?
- surajama 5y agoThe Canadian tech sector has completely changed over the past 5 years (which is when I first came to Canada). When I first got here, $100k+ salaries were rare unless you were very senior or at a select few companies. I am now looking for a job in Toronto after working for a FAANG for a few years and often see companies offering over $200k for mid-level positions. However I will say that level.fyi is a little unrepresentative because it's mainly people with impressive TCs posting on there.
- avidiax 5y agoIf you look at the details on levels.fyi, you tend to see a bell-curve, just as you might expect if you had a representative sample. Compensation really is as high as levels.fyi suggests, and even higher once stock growth is factored.
