I would legitimately be stoked to make $1 million plus per year to work at the leading company developing the most important technology we'll see in our lifetimes. It would be easy for me to recover 20/hours per week in the conveniences that kind of salary could bring.
Unfortunately, my skills in this area are far short of my enthusiasm.
- mvdtnz 2y agoI can assure you, regardless of your skills or the hours you put in, Google would not be paying you $1M/year.
- xnx 2y agoGood correction. Looks like the audience he might be addressing makes more like $300K/year.
- xracy 2y agoYeah, and how much money does he make vs how many hours he works? Like, he's punching down with all of these comments, and because he's still punching up from where 99% of workers are at, people buy the line from the billionaire who stands to benefit from this. "All of the Google Grunts should be putting in 20 more hours a week so that I can make more money off of owning Google stock in exchange for the same pay, and no additional work from me, a billionaire." - What Sergey is actually pushing for here. It's no wonder the American dream is dead. People don't even want others to achieve it unless they're already a billionaire, or unless they have to burn themselves out to achieve it.
- manmal 2y agoThere‘s IMO no way to recover 20h/week on that salary. Cutting the commute to zero could be something like this, but I don’t think that’s possible in this case.
