Is the average FANG pay in canada comparable to the pay in Silicon valley, USA or New York? If not, what is the difference like in USD? tc 230
I get what @sigsevv is saying, but what he wrote above describes how difficult or rare it is to get that salary... it’s important to note that 130k cad is about $95k us, AND Canada has way higher taxes
Canadian companies in Toronto will rarely pay more than $150k CAD base, and very little bonuses/equity to boot. US companies with a Canadian office like Instacart, Amazon, Wish, Okta, Coursera, etc will pay much better. Taxes are about the same as in California, ~40% at mid 100k.
Wish has crazy deep pocket. Amazon doesn't pay as well as you think. For engineers Amazon TC is roughly Wish base. (Might make sense though, since you can't pay rent with private equity). Maybe it's a good time for me to jump ship...mhm
Well lmk if you need a referral lol. I think we pay well compared to other b/c tier companies but I’d be surprised if it’s that much more than amazon
Just received my year end statement, 150K CAD SDE-2 😓
when did u start at amzn? as an sde1 or 2?
the stinginess is real. i got my sde2 offer last winter and on the first offer TC was about 160k so yours is about right. That offer was despite a higher competing offer that they're aware of. 3 YoE at the time.
170k cad vs 250k usd
Seriously? Which city in Canada?
Toronto. Also 130k cad vs roughly 180k usd. 250k cad vs roughly 350k usd. Etc. I used Bay area for referencing USD salary.
