These are no longer the best paying, best perks, exciting companies (except maybe N on pay). Knowing a lot of people in the industry (I got 15+ YOE) who work at these companies (and love working for them) and doing some basic research, I’d say the new tier of great pay, great perks, and existing companies are: - Databricks - Snowflake - Confluent - Datadog - Cruise - Coinbase (2 people I know actually really like it there, maybe because they are staff and Sr. Staff an make $$$) - AirBnB - Discord - Square - Plaid - OpenAI (duh) ————— For people talking about stock appreciation, First most these companies vest on quarter basis, nothing stops you from selling those and investing in other companies Second, the public companies above companies tend to move with the rest of the market Here is FAANG stock YTD vs the publicly traded above F-> 150% Amazon-> 55% Apple-> 55% Google -> 38 Vs Snowflake -> 38% Confluent -> 77% Datadog -> 58% coinbase -> 210% Airbnb-> 73% Square/block-> 22%
Discord pays peanut and their equity is worthless
I bet someone buys them one day and mints a slew of brand new millionaires
Huh? I doubt this because a) levels.fyi and b) the people who work there come from companies that pay relatively well. Whether their equity is worthless is up for debate, but they must have a very large number of DAUs like 100M+, possibly much more.
Lol at a lot of the companies in this list being higher tier…
Why do you care to even comment?
Because he's right there isn't a single HFT on that list
Half the companies you listed is Monopoly money comp. I’ll take actual liquid equity at a FAANG over most of those.
False 7 out of the 11 are public companies
5+7=11? 😅
F*ck your tiers TC 600
There was no tiers mentioned
Look a little more closely
🤡
I’m sorry do disappoint you about your choices
Coinbase pays high for a reason: it's extremely dysfunctional, they have a hard time attaching and retaining good talents because once you are in you realize how it has taken the bad aspects of startups (long hours, no planning, hack everything) and the bad aspects of big companies (politics, bureaucracy, empire building...). This is basically a career dead end, and to find people that are willing to stay, they pay pretty well
Lol..double whammy!
Lol this is hilarious
I just wanna be happy.
TC OR GTFO /s
Does money buy happiness?
Datadog can compete with FAANG these days. We down-level hard though.
I keep getting rejected by datadog, confirmed they are higher prestige than Meta
