Ask HN: What is your salary? (December 2022)

Just a comment .. looking at salary in tech is silly. Lets ignore benefits which are likely impossible to quantify. Most tech workers in hi-fi companies and roles get stock (even I don't understand how to properly value but big diff if publicly traded or not). The other massive component is bonuses. I've seen numbers from 10-30% and am sure there are more. The next thing is hiring bonus. Final thing I am aware of is long-term retention bonuses. It is complicated for a reason .. if you just ask me for my salary that will likely be half of what these other factors provide.

Cost-of-living in your area, Years of experience and Education are also key factors to balance.

Recommend SAP. Great work and life balance. A compassionate company that walks its talk. Happiness is not just the max pay you receive.

Not working. Collecting SSI. About $10K a year. Can't save more than $2K in the bank though.

Recommend SAP. Great culture and work-life balance. A company that actually walks its talk.

120.000€ total compensation. 37.5 hours a week, working as a tech lead in the Netherlands.

About 100k USD total comp. No stock. Front end dev working in the solar industry with about 10 years of professional experience.

Love my job but think our industry is totally overcompensated. Teachers, medical professionals, etc. work much much harder, contribute way more to society, and get paid way less. Capitalism is nuts.

My total comp is ~300k, 200 of which is in cash.
