Summary
$342,546/YrBut At What Cost? Earn Cash Back On Stocks: Up To $5,000 Per Year https://www.silomarkets.com/logic Working at big tech is currently by far the most lucrative job path in the world. Fresh college grads can earn nearly $200,000 and it only goes up from there. But, the reality is that these high salaries and perks don’t come for free. Like with anything, the output is very much equal to the input, and let’s just say, it’s not exactly easy to survive at big tech. While we often hear about rest and vesters and slackers, the reality for the average FAANG engineer is a lot different, especially with the recent layoffs and budget cuts. You see, working at companies like Netflix is much less like a job and much more like being a professional athlete. In fact, that’s how Netflix describes it on their official careers page. And unless you’re constantly putting out toptier performance, you’re gonna be cut from the team regardless of your previous contributions or seniority. But, oftentimes, there doesn’t even need to be consequences to get these engineers to work really hard given that they only hire high achievers to begin with. This video explains the difficulty of working and surviving in big tech and why the big salaries aren’t as generous as you might think.
