As someone who works at big tech company, the reality couldn't be further from the truth. This is one of the hottest job markets I've seen. Amazon, who are known to pay worse than other FAANGs, recently increased their compensation massively to attract new hires. Microsoft is going to give a one time lump sum to everyone to stop attrition. I don't know where the author is coming from tbh.

- listenallyall 4y ago> one time lump sum to everyone to stop attrition How does a one-time lump sum payment reduce attrition? As soon as you receive the payment, you're back to seeking a better salary.
- Sateeshm 4y agoIt usually comes with an agreement saying you will stay another year or whatever. In other cases, it would at least make a dent in people's satisfaction levels.
- thaway2839 4y agoWasn't Amazon's increase over a year ago? And I have never heard of Amazon being a low payer. I guess the people I know worked at AWS and maybe that was an outlier in terms of their payments, because they are paid as much, if not more, than people in similar roles in MS/Google.
