- zdragnar 4y agoIt's a very high salary for the geographic market we're in, and we are far too small a company to compete directly with FAANGs. Even having worked for west coast companies, I've never gotten $200k base salary- adjusted for my region, most pay in the $150-175 range, and I've got quite a few years under my belt.
- mulmen 4y agoIf you can’t hire I question if it is high for your area. I am sympathetic to your position but the market seems to have spoken.
- zdragnar 4y agoIf that's the case, then ruby developers are severely overpaid for the quality and quantity of code they produce. Of course, I don't believe that's the case, but rather that there is a shortage based on it being a relatively unpopular technology compared to java / .net / node / etc.
