- vote Is Blind healthy? Every once in a while I redownload Blind just because I find it entertaining, but I quickly find myself making up reasons to leave my current job. “Wow look at all these super high TCs/prestige/fancy startups”. This is even though I don’t necessarily have a problem with my current job. This (Blind)
- Thank you so much Blind I found Blind 3 years ago while I was working at my 1st job and discovered how underpaid I was ($80k TC). I learned how to grind LC and really believed that I could change my life with it. After working at my 1st job for ~1 yr, I started applying to jobs and got a referral to Google from a random Bl

- Blind changed my attitude!!!!! I used to think of FAANG and other top level companies are unattainable and are the most ideal prestigious tech jobs in the world. No matter how much I prepare, people there will be a step ahead always. But now with the conversations and being part of this community hearing from first hand experien
- From 75K to 290K! Thanks to the Blind community! A friend introduced me to Blind at the beginning of the year and I quickly realized that what I previously thought was out there was way below the reality of what people were actually getting paid. Im a first generation college graduate so I didn’t have anyone to advise me on the realities of what i

- Holy Shit. People of Blind, we need to do this. Can’t be that hard to do this.
- Blind definition of prestige Blind "prestige" equates to "where can I be a do-nothing bum coder who doesn't work and collects the most money"? The definition of "prestige" here is very different than in real life. Change my mind.

- vote Open letter to Blind team If you really want to grow this platform, it is time to reconsider how you want to validate people by work email.

- Blind Basics Hi - I've tried searching for this but it's not clear to me. What constitutes a total comp for Blind? Base + cash bonus are of course included in that. But my question pertains to stocks. Is it just the value of the vest for this year? If so, that'll fluctuate I guess. Or is it grant amount? I get
- Thanks, Blind! After my last post, I applied for a new job, and got it!! Now making 68k as a tier 1 analyst, with a great company that actually has room for me to grow. The benefits are outstanding and my coworkers seem great. Thanks Blind, for helping me see my worth. #newjob #betterpay
- Doubled my salary thanks to an intagram Blind ad. I just wanted to share my story as an encouragement to other product designers who are considering leaving their current company.

- Dont be duped by blind rumors on AMZN TC Edit I know this post might disappointed you but this is just reality at Amazon. All new hire + promoted folks will get nice pay as in new range. Given that the inflation is more than 7% and amzn stock is falling (with yoy 15% appreciation) you better leave now or sooner. The reason to stay her
- Why isn’t Blind on Blind? Blind is all about transparency but why doesn’t blind be transparent about itself? Why isn’t Blind company review page on Blind?
- Blind TC Bias! TC 100k I noticed recently going through posts that similar posts, whether at different times or posted closer to each other have different amount and quality of comments based on your TC and company… FAAANG and high TC get more interaction while low TC get very low reaction. Thoughts?

- vote Blind changed sentiment about Google I remember it 3-4 years ago, everyone on Blind simped for Google. Now I look at the threads and people hate downleveling, GCP culture, dead projects, slow growth and promo. People choose Meta, Uber, even Amazon. Lol, I myself rejected a Google offer because it was some shit scope and Amazon offered

- vote How toxic is the Blind app? I joined Blind a year ago to get career advice and connect with fellow software engineers. During this time, I've had my TC ridiculed, been the subject of sexist jokes, and felt my self esteem get crushed by the general toxicity on this app. Given the poor governance by the app creators in terms o

- Blind is depressing!! Few months ago I was at 73k TC and 15 YOE. Yesterday I was pushing back on a 160k VP offer. Non-tech, you can guess. That’s more than 100% more. I was extremely happy with it.. until I opened Blind again (after months of avoiding it) and found 3 YOEs complaining about their “only” 2m nw and 350 tc.
