Sort of?

The big tech companies often pay workers well outside the bands of other firms, particularly when you factor in the equity portion of compensation.

We’re interviewing a Googler right now and they’re going to knowingly take a pay cut to join a company that’s fully remote.

Likely this persons’ move isn’t only about it being remote but also that they’d have more agency in a smaller org.

    This is it. People move from FAANG to smaller orgs to have more agency, step up a role etc.. But then we take a severe paycut because often those companies don't have stonks and stuff.

    They're banking on people living in big cities needing those salaries, and it's likely going to work.
