- When blind starts to panic about stocks Then the bottom is near
- Zoomers ion blind who never saw a recession, you realize why companies give out stock now right? Seeing so many posts about stock based high TC. Like snap or Robinhood the last year's But you zoomers don't realize the reason is paper money and empty promises are cheap. It's because there is 0 cost almost for them and without profit there is no real stock value Hope you learned your lesson now
- Amazon Stock Split blind posts People are not really sure about the stock splits .. a dude thinks he is getting 8 million. if you buy the stock when the split news came out, you will get the split. I was on RH bought 0.1 stock of AMZN, will have 2 stocks right ? it's important that you buy when the split news was coming at the
- Meta earnings - Why are folks on blind who make so much in RSUs so bad at valuation of stocks? This company has one of the best balance sheet in the world. Had been trading at 13x free cash flow. The boomers at Blackrock or any of these big firms would get a hard on to own a business like Meta at 13x free cash flow even if revenue stayed flat. Most mature businesses trade at 10-15x cash flow.
- What does your company internal blind look like after stock crash? Many stocks recently crashed, I’m curious what people are discussing in their internal blind. For Meta/FB - questioning metaverse bet - regretting joining fb - planning to leave soon - getting so excited about the upcoming refresher (the grant price is 1 week after earning) #robinhood #snap #door
- Accuracy on TC / RSU on blind Hello folks! How often you think that the TC or RSU they mention on blind is accurate? The same role SWE In the same company is altered by 30-40 percent TC with almost the same YOE. How you gauge this ? TC 150 ? #engineering #software #swe
- Why do so many people on blind pick individual stocks? Time after time data has shown that individual stock pickers significantly underperform the broader market because they always invest at the peak of the bubble and tend to sell low. Yet so many blind investors seem to be chasing random tech companies by stories instead of valuation? Why? Is this ju
- TC quoted on blind factors in stock appreciation? I've been in talks with recruiter and negotiating attempts seem to be reaching a wall. All I am asking for is the offers quoted here on blind. Recruiter says its over the limit of L6 band and needs special approval. he says to benefit you, keep more stocks than base or bonus as potential upside i

- Are the TCs on Blind including stock appreciation? With how crazy tech stocks are going up, are the TCs here without counting stock appreciation. If stock appreciation is added, it would make the actual TC way higher.

- vote Do you count ESPP in your TC on blind? I know there’s always a debate here on whether or not you should base your TC off of current stock price vs offer.

- link Should blind show username Current TC and actual TC(accounting for stock growth/decline)? As title states should TC be visible for every user with a verification method similar to levels.fyi? Since people on blind only care about TC anyways I dont see what the issue is. The previous days closing stock price could be used to compute the TC. TC 450k. Actual TC 350k because of stock decl

- On Blind, Does TC@Amazon include RSU when mentioning total comp or Just Base + Year 1 Bonus Does TC discussion on Amazon include RSU when mentioning TC in Blind ??
- Why is the whole stock component in compensation considered as part of TC in Blind posts when it vests over 4 years ? Stocks typically vest over 4 years in most tech companies. Wouldn't it be better to include only 1/4th of stock as part of TC when communicating here on blind and in general ? For example, a typical blind post says - Base : 100K RSU 400 K TC 500 K Wouldn't base 100k rsu 100k TC 200 k be more accurat
- vote To every idiot on Blind who thinks they can beat the stock market and predict future prices better than Wall Street can Please read this and learn something.

- Stocks never come back -- SHOP, ZM et al Folks keep holding to the belief that it will all come back.

- Robinhood's just announced PIP is a company principle Folks are fuming because we're now officially a PIP company.

- link Just your daily reminder that Blind is a bad place to ask about the economy The people on Blind are better than average at leetcode and system design interview prep. They are average at coding. Please stop asking Blind about whether stocks will increase or decrease. We don’t know which ones will perform well. Here’s an example of Blind’s poll predicting Meta will tank when

- Amazon is basically the highest TC company for the last year Honestly I think the supremacy of Amazon is a hard pill for blind to swallow. If you look at the comp they are handing out (which everyone here is well aware of) and then the stability of the stock, Amazon is #1.

- Shopify is a solid company Funny how all those negative comments about Shopify came out after their stock crashed. Few companies achieved 60% two year revenue CAGR and their gross merchandise volume grew 16% YoY when the entire e-commerce market slowed, meaning they are taking shares from competitors. It’s a broken stock, not
