- achow 3y agoYeah weird PRODUCT MANAGEMENT VP | META PLATFORMS, INC. | $248768.00
- hackernewds 3y agoBase, without equity
- fnfjfk 3y agoThat's still low, that's an E7/M2 salary, VP is at least three levels higher (D1, D2, VP1).
- boeingUH60 3y agoThis stat likely includes just base salary and not stock compensation.
- diebeforei485 3y agoGood tech companies pay employees higher than what is listed in the filing, they just don't want to divulge how much they're paying in public records. This is totally fine, there is nothing illegal about paying more. Mediocre companies (or good startups who aren't considering this stuff too deeply) file with the exact salary. Scam companies pay below what they filed (illegal).
- lisasays 3y agoSo they're submitting false filings, you say? You know this how?
- inemesitaffia 3y agoThis is guaranteed money. I'm sure you've heard of appearance and performance fees in sports
- diebeforei485 3y agoEven the salary component is higher than what the filings say.
- diebeforei485 3y agoYes, but there is nothing wrong with that! There is nothing wrong in committing to pay $200K but actually paying $250K. They report actual pay to the IRS.
- darth_avocado 3y agoThere is an important caveat here. H1B filings only includes guaranteed compensation, which is your base salary. Stocks and bonuses are not included here. That’s why you’ll see data points like Meta paying 200k for a VP level H1B. I reality they are absolutely not underpaying H1Bs at VP level and the person is printing millions a year.
- flakeoil 3y agoIt's just one position, not an average. There are other positions with the same title with higher salaries. Quantitative Research can be anything, basically just an Excel inputer could be called that. I think salary expectations on HN, in tech and in the US are a bit off. Do you really believe someone crunching numbers is worth USD 600000 per year?
- smcl 3y agoI think a lot of the comments where people casually dismiss salaries in the hundreds of thousands a year as too low are just attempts at flexing.
- d4mi3n 3y agoI view it more as an observation on compensation compared to value their labor brings to the employer’s bottom line.
- tyingq 3y agoThere's some middle ground. People's salaries charted over time compared to CEO pay, productivity numbers, purchasing power, or inflation, etc, have degraded pretty badly over time.
- spamizbad 3y agoIts Citadel, not some random company. They are infamous here in Chicago for paying people gobs of money and working you 80 hours/week. I would be highly suspect of any Citadel position under 100K.
- flakeoil 3y agoThe next Enron.
- euiq 3y agoQuantitative Research as Citadel Securities is a set of specific, highly-paid, jobs.
- darth_avocado 3y agoThere is an important caveat here. H1B filings only includes guaranteed compensation, which is your base salary. Stocks and bonuses are not included here. That’s why you’ll see data points like Meta paying 200k for a VP level H1B. I reality they are absolutely not underpaying H1Bs at VP level and the person is printing millions a year.
- 8ytecoder 3y agoNot even guaranteed compensation - that column is prevailing wages - avg market salary. Not what they’re paid. That’s the minimum they need to paid.
