I don't get this pay disparity between Europe and the US. It's totally crazy to me as someone who has lived and worked in both the States and Denmark (and citizen of both). We work the same hours. If you're in a major metropolis you're paying the same amount of money for food, a home, etc. You're getting taxed at a much higher rate, on average, in Europe.

Why do we put up with this? I think EU employees should just say we will take the same pay you're paying your US employees or we won't take the offer. Giving in to the insane expectation is what keeps us underpaid to our US counterparts.

Since Posthog points to their salary calculator in their job posted, I listed the lowest and the highest possible values as the range.

For ramp, the $250k+ salary is listed based on their "who is hiring" post [1]. But you might be right about the salary being applicable to only US candidates.

Otherwise, I pretty much listed what's there on the job pages.

That’s insane.
