I am interviewing for a Front End Engineer 1 position at PlayStation and the recruiter told me the average comp for this position is around 128,000. How is the overall work life balance and what is the remote work like? Note: I come from a really small start up in Texas and this would boost my career immensely by taking on this position #engineering #software #swe #playstation #sony

    Take the offer and use it as a stepping stone for about 2 or 3 years

    I come from humble beginnings so anything over 6 figures is a lot to me

      I passed on it. Compensation was quite weak and I’ve had similar offers here in Austin in the past two weeks.

      OP, congratulations on your other offers. I would encourage you to pass the feedback to your recruiter about the reason which is very low comp. No equity almost makes it impossible to attract talent in Bay area.

    Is that comp a joke? They won’t be able to hire any devs in a market like this with that level of comp.

      Lol I asked about a manager dev role he said well below 200k….. you’d think with all these in app purchases they can get a cut and run it like apples App Store so they don’t have to pay their employees peanuts
