I know it's a stupid question but just curious
^ That's lowball.
Yes they often lowball. Recently got 1.3M offer, its even lower than existing comp.. how can they do that.
Wtf do these companies even hire folks above 40?? That’s great
OP is 30 and started programming professionally at 10
If you make 200k coming out of school to work at G/FB and 500k after 3-4 years, then by "fair" extrapolation you should be making 50 million a year with 20yoe. Don't let them lowball you for anything less(!), otherwise threaten to cancel your Netflix subscription and that you'll go work Disney+ or Pornhub instead!
2M
21 yoe and i don’t take less than 4M
