Salary Comparison
Get Your EstimateCompanies By Revenue
- Revenue divided by number of employees is NOT how much you make for the company That would imply that if you left, the company’s revenue would go down by that amount. But of course it wouldn’t. Because you’re part of a team, not the center of the universe. I see this bullshit thinking all the time on Blind, so I just wanted to clarify. ✌️ Tc 500
- What does it say about a company by prioritizing revenue over profits? What does it say when a company shifts focus to increasing the gross revenue over profits? Or even increasing gross revenue at the expense of profits. What about the opposite where revenue growth is important, but emphasis is on profits?
- Changing jobs in a climate of layoffs What is the community’s thoughts about changing companies during a time of layoffs and potential recession? Particularly going from FAANG to a smaller company (but by smaller I mean in comparison to FAANG - around $20B revenue / 30K employees)
- Why the fuck did DoorDash stock jump 26% Eps got wrecked by 60% Est: -0.27 Actual: -0.45 Revenue beat by 2%. Why the fuck is the stock going up this much for a company that is losing $500M+ per year. Pandemic is easing, rate hikes are coming, inflation soaring. Got fucked with my 3/25 puts and needed to vent. I remember DASH peaking la
- vote Does Bolt have a future? Supposedly they have 40M revenue and a 14B valuation, with Amazon launching "Buy with Prime", Fast shutting down and them burning money by spending 10% of company value on an acquisition while having not much cash (few people on blind said they have less than 1.5 years of runway). The founder is als
- Can we expect more stock drop next quarter? Growth and sales / revenue for almost all companies will be impacted by Russia - Asia Pacific geo political effects. Can we expect more drop? Maybe even bear market? Or are we already priced in? What happens to housing market?
- vote Would TC of twitter employees be cut? Because they can’t issue more shares or RSU. So practically they don’t have money printing machine. They would have to rely on their revenue only so I don’t think twitter offers would be competitive anymore. Because growth companies usually throw competitive offers by diluting shares. Now it won
- How do you make sure you aren't working for the next Fast? Fast burned $10mils a month with only $55k in revenue. How do my coworkers know we aren't in that situation? What questions should startup employees ask their CFO/CEO (revenue, burn rate, etc.) to assess if it's safe to work for them when Fed is flirting with multiple 0.50% rate increases? Is it a
- link Is Google no more a “Don’t be evil” company? I was talking to a friend who was furious about how Google was taking 100% of the revenue generated from small / new content creators by showing ads on their content and not sharing any revenue with the creators. At first I didn’t believe that Google would do anything unethical like this but then I
- vote Public Cloud Wars in 2 years (2023) Which hyperscaler public cloud providers do you think would have the highest revenue in 2023? Note: I haven’t mentioned all permutations here since there are too many. Rather just, choose the ranking of each company (descending, by revenue in ‘23)
- Amazon stock overvalued Just to give you some context, I worked in Amazon for 6 years and other tech companies for 4 years, follow tech closely and trade a lot.. I think people are confused about how to value Amazon retail.. aws , Alexa, etc.. are tech and valued on par with other but retail is over valued.. it is like a
- Which companies are in extreme oversold conditions Some companies like NVDA even after >50% revenue growth YoY have seen their valuations slashed by 1/3rd from their ATH. The markets are officially in oversold category. TC: 250K
- vote Snap is about to pass IBM in market cap! snap $118b ibm $121b snap revenue: $2.5b ibm revenue: $73b maybe snap is the real deal! rip to IBM shareholders. it must hurt having a battleship of a company with 300k+ employees and get passed up by a photo chat app. is this justified? 🤔 TC 277
- The reason why SWEs are catered to so much... I finally realized the reason why companies are so 'desperate' to hire good SWEs and will do just about anything to retain the good ones. Draw from the example of Instagram. 10 years ago, it was acquired for $1 billion and they only had 12 engineers! As you can see, just a few A players can genera
- "Improved X by 50%" in resume Are software engineer resumes better when they contain points like "improved X by 50%"? Would X be something like company revenue, or what are some examples?
- Equity review help!! Got an offer from a private company good growth, VC backing, $25mil in revenue for 2022 on track for $45 mil next year. The equity portion of the offer makes no sense. The valuation seems high and the revenue goal ambitious. Need help ladies and germs! What questions would you be asking here?! Be
- How risky is it to join a series D startup ? They have 50 M in funding and backed by two major companies. Automotive (not autonomous vehicle), they started getting good revenues but no profit yet. Will be doing software along with Electrical engineers. Started by MIT alums.
- Need referrals I was laid off by my company as their revenue was hit hard by COVID. Please refer me if you are looking for a software developer with 3 years of experience. Note: Current employer is not amazon.
- vote [INDIA] What is this all hullabaloo about bubble burst? 🙄 Last few days I have seen too many posts on LinkedIn and blind where people say that the Indian TC bubble will burst. The reasoning they give is that these TCs are driven by VC firms overvaluing Indian startups. The biggest flaw I find in this is that Indian startups are not even the top market paye
- Nutanix Nutanix revenue has been flat in the last year and although the stock kind of recovered after the last earnings call it seems like the company is not the leader in what they're doing anymore (overtaken by VMWare). They are heavy on engineering - around 3000 out of <5000 employees total which could
- Revenue source of self driving companies Recently contacted by many self driving companies, and some told me they will IPO soon. Curious what is their business mode before achieving l5 drive? Can they get revenue before being fully approved for public use?
- vote Is it really worth joining Pre-IPO companies now ? In the recent months many high growth public companies which have ARR closer to 800mn - 1 billion+ revenue per year, their market cap is down by 50-70%, Their ARR to market cap multiple is less than 20 now, and these are still high growth companies and are growing at same pace as many popular unico
- vote Offer from snowflake I recently accepted an offer from Snowflake ($550k a year ). I like the space they are in and I feel like I can contributed to the team I'll be joining and yes, of course, the salary jump. I've been reading that Snowflake is overvalued for it's revenue ( inspite of high NRR and 100% growth numbers
- vote Adblocker usage I started thinking about how much revenue for many Tech companies is either primarily driven by advertising, or greatly influenced by it, and also that most tech people I know, including myself, block ads regularly. Do you block ads? Also, do you think it's moral to block ads?
- FAANG CASE QUESTION How would you answer the below? Prompt: Company x (global technology company) has about 100 million in uncaptured revenue/market share (market available to break into) for their service which allows developers to monetize their apps by featuring advertisements. How would you focus your limited sal
- link Meta would have collapsed if TikTok was a US app In U.S., TikTok has: 1. 73.7 million monthly active users (and is forecasted to reach 88.7 million by 2024) 2. Less than $1.3 billion ad revenue in 2020 (comparing with $2.2 billion for Twitter, $2.6 billion for LinkedIn and $48 billion for Facebook and Instagram) US companies don't want to put t
- Which PM job would you choose? Option 1: public company, 100-200MM revenue, product could double their TAM. Option 2: private company, >1B at last valuation, IPO likely in <24mo, product could increase revenue by 25% Both offers are about 200 base, 800-1M stock Both products are critical to company success There are a lot
- Airbnb $1T Airbnb seems likes the only unicorn I see that can reach a $1 trillion marketcap. Rough numbers are $40b gross bookings $5b revenue $1b profit My reasoning is simple. Network effect and a likely monopoly. High margins. Travellers are going to spend more on airbnb than almost any other tech company
- I head SaaS business for a small product company. Where should I head next? 🤔🙏 Hi All, I head #SaaS business at a product company (~15 MN revenue) in enterprise #datamanagement space. Joined in 2018 and have setup the saas business ground up. Have been responsible for Product, Pre-sales, service delivery, Product marketing and own the P&L. I am supported by pre-existing sales
- AWS - Work hard, Make History... Make the company record profits, quarter after quarter, and then bend over for your efforts. I see an entire team that just got pay cuts, in the form of 5% TC increases, on the tail end of 8% inflation. When Amazon wants to boost revenue, they pump the price of Prime from $119 per year to $139. Wh
- vote If I make the website faster, but the customer is charged by assistance time, then I made a "negative impact"? TLDR: I can make the webpage load 20% faster, but that means the revenue is 20% lower. So I made "negative impact"? For example, if a company I worked for was charging customers by the number of hours they get our expert help from us... so, for example, 1 hour of expert help is $60, and 2 hours is
- Data Engineer to AWS TAM. Bad idea? As the title says, I’m considering becoming an AWS TAM after having ran a BI/DATA team at a top company. I’m hoping to get closer to the revenue. Career wise, am I limiting myself by going into a support org?
- Private tech companies in the current market? IC just slashed valuation by 40%! People keep saying Stripe is inflated too and will fall but how do they know? Bolt's current valuation is 275X revenue. Is that normal? Anyone else worried we might be headed towards a recession and private companies will suffer a lot? Bad time to take on private
- Is Plaid overvalued? Plaid is doing a great SaaS business. I can see it would enjoy a 30x revenue valuation. Hardly see any competitors. Some risk: (1) US GDPR, likely sponsored by credit companies, (2) real-time ACH settlement (3) data breach event (4) fintech sector melt down in past quarter I personally feel a bit
- High tech predictions for next 6-12 months A fun thought exercise based some research, some musings, and a lot bit of intuition. Facebook buys AIC to diversify revenue outside of ads ServiceNow will be bought by Microsoft or IBM Microsoft will buy Atlassian and Slack Amazon will buy a driverless car company or Lyft eBay will start downs
- link Is Zeta really worth the hype ? This post is not to offend anyone. Just trying to understand the domain. I can see lot of positivity around Zeta in every blind post. I can see lot of issues though. 1. Very less revenue. 10M dollar revenue that too from a single client. 2. Zeta is founded in 2015. For a six year old startup, 10M re
- airline puts Just purchased a ton of airline puts. The fact that the market thinks that the airlines are worth the same as they were pre-covid is stupid. Most revenue is generated by business flights and many companies are now shifting to WFH. Also, International flights are going to remain shut down due to delt

PM by core trade but in recent years have run a $100mm P&L with a 150 strong global team, been a very smalltime CEO (<$5mm revenue), and a small company ($50mm revenue ballpark) SVP role. Assuming I'm deemed competent, what sort of level should I expect at FB or G? Is this an

- Being approached to be an advisor Has anyone advised for a startup before? What are things to do/ensure you're setting yourself up to succeed? I was approached by a SaaS company focusing on AdTech to become an advisor. They only need 1-3 hours a month of my time in exchange for stock. They do $15M yearly in revenue so they're doing
