What do you think about TC posted on Blind?


I was wondering if the TC posted on Blind is reflective of the comp in our industry(Software Engineering/Tech) in general?

Reflective for the people posting about it on Blind...they're usually at a top tier software engineering company. As a whole, I would imagine the salaries are a lot less than the TC you see represented on Blind. The workplace is also a lot less intense.

FWIW - I've only ever worked in big tech outside of an internship in college at a slow F500 so small disclaimer.

It's very much reflective of large and successful companies in big cities with a high cost of living. Otherwise, not so much.

It's reflective of what's possible, not of what's normal.
