Agree. Will only help US Engineers as everything will be on equal footing
If anything, companies would rather lower pay to the lowest wages they can pay in other countries. Would you rather every engineer be paid what the current lowest paid engineer is making?
Agree.
Delusional
Why does company care What house, food , cars employees buy. If company’s revenue is from US customers only it should not worry where contributions come from and pay equally
The whole point of having an office in India is to get job done for a lower cost. If the pay is the same - there is no point to even open office in India, better to open one more office in California. Unless the pay is not competitive for Californians.
@Meta that’s BS, lol There are many reasons for having foreign offices, such as tapping into a different talent pool, using timezones to your advantage for example for on-call, improving diversity, … Besides, outside of engineering it’s actually often a must for things like sales
They do. As soon as they move to California.
Yep
I support fair pay, but pay in most company is based on cost of living and demand rather than performance. Raising pay for India, would also mean raising pay in all low cost of living areas across the board (ranging from rural US states to different countries).
Google does not use cost of living to set salaries. No major tech company does that
Actually Google does use cost of living to adjust salaries and caps for a specific location. People working in Sunnyvale will be paid more than those working remotely in Kansas City. Ty, next.
