We generally offer compensation that is competitive in your location, so yes, we do differentiate. I've never been part of a compensation decision outside of the US, so I don't know what that ultimately looks like in Eastern Europe or India.

That's pity. You're basically cutting off all the candidates who made it through and regardless of their living places, have e.g. "North American" wages...

I'm from Eastern Europe and it's been more than a decade since I've worked for local [competitive] wage last time - because it is low. And there are quite many like me, in these low-wage places.

People who are working remotely from Eastern Europe or other remote locations are almost always coming to Mozilla into a more senior position, with very demonstrable skills, and typically have access to more of the market than just what's available locally, and I believe we take that into account (but again, I haven't personally been involved in compensation discussions in those areas). Still we make a distinction in terms of cost of living, and realistically the Bay Area just has a different labor market than elsewhere – so to be competitive in the Bay Area while also hiring elsewhere it makes sense to differentiate to some degree.

Agree, SF/Bay Area is somewhat an exception. That's why I mention "North American" generally. To further differentiate - "Seattle" level could be fine, while "midwest" not so much ;)
