The man I love hates me because I’m Vietnamese
Has anyone used data from either levels.fyi or Glassdoor to successfully negotiate a better offer? If yes, how much better? If no, what was the company response/reaction to such data? TC: 220K YOE: 25+
Glassdoor says MAANG Engineers make 125k and Directors at places like Meta make 200. It's completely unreliable for salary.
Nobody is gonna budge on numbers from anonymous sites like that. You need to have competing offers in hand.
An alternative is H1B sites which are reported by the employer. Can easily search by company and come up with a range.
That’s true but I still think recruiters would not be willing to budge based on reported data. Plus h1b is salary only, not TC
Do. Not. Use. Glassdoor. Their data is fake. The salaries and reviews are manufactured.
+1 Glassdoor is awful
What about Levels? BTW, if both sites show a similar average for the same job, are both right or wrong?
