I know stock grants are ubiquitous in some parts of the tech world, but as someone who only gets paid in cash I have always wondered what percentage of tech jobs actually include significant stock compensation.
- almost_usual 3y agoAny public “tech” company should include stock as compensation for SWEs. Startup equity is mostly worthless unless you get lucky.
- JOnAgain 3y agoThe higher paying jobs skew heavily to stock, especially at FAANG. As you get more sr, stock grants can be 50-80% of comp. So looking at salary alone massively understates comp.
- scarface_74 3y agoWhile that’s true. Only a tiny minority of developers work at the well known public tech companies.
