How would you tier companies in the Bay Area?

Compensation matters. So do the perks. But what else would you consider while segmenting companies in the Bay? How do you define a hot or a high-tiered company?Also, what is your take on current tiers? My thoughts: Tier 1: FAANG, MS (& LI), Uber Tier 2: Oracle, Workday, SFDC, eBay, PayPal, typical decent paying public tech companies Tier 3: Other smaller companies Tier 4: Agencies

I really think Google and Facebook have fallen from grace....FANG needs an update.

I'm just saying...there are no hardware companies in fang acronym. N is for Netflix. Nvidia is better than Facebook or Google...way better growth in the last few years.

Let’s define this first: compensation, reputation, impact, technically interesting, potential are the criteria. In that order of importance. Tier 1: Google, Facebook, Jane Street, Wall Street financial systems companies that I don’t know enough about solely for compensation, impact and technically interesting. Tier 2: Amazon, Uber, Netflix, Airbnb Tier 3: Microsoft, Twitter, Apple, Square, LinkedIn, Slack, Lyft, Pinterest Tier 4: Other known tech companies — Adobe, Salesforce, Yadayada

Very few wall street companies actually really value devs / tech apart from Jane, two sigma and perhaps some top quant hedge funds and some HFT. Unless you’re talking about quants/traders. Those guys are the top guns in financial firms.
