The biggest red flag is a senior engineer role paying $80hr!



Too low? Too high?


Low. Much too low. Going rate starts in the low 100s and has no super hard cap.

80/hr overseas, or in less urban parts of the US is pretty standard. I’d question the reason for staying, though, since finding higher paying remote work is pretty easy these days…


$80 an hour is a salary of $166,400


Yup.

Typical FAANG base salary for entry level junior is about that, not counting stock.


That’s so easy to refute… https://www.levels.fyi/companies/google/salaries/software-en...

> SWE II (Entry Level)

> Base: $133K


Considering I wrote offers for dozens of entry level SWEs at G? Not recently.


Phew! Wanted to make sure, lol.
