saw a glassdoor listing for a custodial worker at google mountain view. 85k base + benefits + free food + 401k match + equity(??).
a senior dev at a non-tech company in the midwest makes like 90-110k.
the tech compensation bubble is insane and i dont think people outside of it realize how warped it is

cost of living bro. 85k in mountain view is like 45k in ohio. that janitor is probably living with 3 roommates

still wild that a janitor at a tech company gets equity. that tells you everything about how these companies view compensation as a retention moat

i know a contract bus driver for apple who makes 95k. not kidding. the whole ecosystem around big tech is inflated

this is why non-tech companies cant hire good engineers. why would anyone take 110k at a bank when they can make 250k at a FAANG for less work
