I know they don’t my l1 engineering salary wS the same as someone did like sales training at l4/5
Dude they make crazy money in RSUs.
As someone that moved from tech to business/operations, can confirm they don't.
I’m confused; does Ops make more or less than engineers?
Less
Not even close is the actual answer. Coming from a finance guy for 10 years who also does payroll budgeting at Amazon and can see the compensation of various levels and departments
Engineering has the highest comp, period
Engineering is a more rare skill and is the constraint in the American job market. Shockingly obvious...they’re not recruiting/hiring Indians and other outsiders BY THE DROVES in operations. Of course engineering makes TONS more.
Been doing some asking I think Wayfair has three pay scales for L1-L4 highest being engineering, then data scientists then business. I feel like there are levels within those scales since PMs I’ve been told are in the engineering band but don’t make the same. Someone else might know more than me.
What about NPI Engineering? Title says “engineer” but they fall under Ops.

Can confirm this is 100% the case- they don’t. Signed, a former operations/business folk
I was surprised to learn it is not the case at Wayfair, not sure it that was an exception.
Then Wayfair is either underpaying engineers or overpaying finance people.
