Not just tech workers. 24 year old non-technical product managers at FAANG companies are demanding $190,000 salaries.
As a European I wish more FAANG companies started hiring software engineers remotely. The only American companies that have offered me remote jobs with FAANG tier salaries were cryptobro startups.

- starttoaster 3y agoDo they pay European salaries in European offices? I imagine the answer to that question is, "yes." The appeal for a European to get an American FAANG position remotely is presumably to soak up some of that dramatically higher American tech salary. I'm not sure that's a reasonable expectation though, as most companies in my experience will adjust pay to scale to the employee's current location for remote roles.

- RestlessMind 3y agoBased on my personal experience, the answer is yes. Hired a lot of Europeans in London, Dublin, Munich, Zurich, Budapest and Lisbon over the last decade. Only Zurich came close to SV compensation levels.
- jethro_tell 3y agoWell, part of the deal for a lot of these salaries is that you work more hours than the EU allows.
