Hardware companies routinely license individual EDA tool seats that cost more than numerous developer salaries - $1k/year is nothing if it improves productivity by any measurable amount.
- saulpw 1y agoThe OP was saying it's $1k/mo. That's a 5-10% raise, which is a bit more than nothing.
- Jcampuzano2 1y agoThere are many companies that regularly spend much more than that on other software related licenses that devs need to do their job productively. If the average US salaried developer is 10-15% more productive for just 1k more a month it is literally a no-brainer for companies to invest in that. Of course on the other side of the coin there are many companies that are very stingy with paying for literally anything for their employees that could measurably improve productivity, and hamper their ability to be productive by intentionally paying for cheap shitty tools. They will just lose out.
- baq 1y agoIt isn’t a raise. Salaries are on a very different budget. Money is fungible etc but don’t tell accounting.
- ryukoposting 1y agoParent comment isn't joking. Good simulators for RF stuff can be well over $5k per month.
