In my experience it's almost tri-modal even without location being taken into account. Non-tech will pay low rates like the OP is seeing. Startups that care about talent will pay 10-50% more without counting equity. Large tech and late stage startups will pay 50-400% more if you count the RSUs (liquid for large tech).
The issue right now is that many companies are having hiring slowdowns and the VC market is cold so there's less jobs in the second two categories.
- lofatdairy 4y agoTook a while to find someone say this. Yeah this sounds about the case from what I've seen. Factor in significant growth in talent pools (college engineering programs are often minting 20-30% of their students as CS majors not counting math, physics, ee grads etc) and it seems to explain a bit of the stagnation in the SWE job market.
