Troll is going to troll... The average salary at Twitter is 117-95k. Which is inline with the average salary of a software engineer.
Exactly. I can’t get my head around Elon is that obstinate. Does his direct team mention anything to him “hey boss, this memo has limited upside, and a lot of downside”. As posted earlier in this thread, the twitter product is currently performing at a record rate (views). musk seems, to the layman, to be making dumb decisions. Just to make a point or be a big troll. But $44B.
Yep, you're right. Weird, when I clicked on it, it showed as tweet "no longer available" but I could read all the comments under it. Just looked again and it's there.
You apparently can’t read the data in your own link. Notwithstanding Candor’s salary figures of $273,000 on average linked earlier. Not every critical Twitter employee is a “software engineer”. $273,000 average salary is very competitive. If you’re not willing to work for it, someone else will.
I'm sure that number is dropping by the minute these days. FWIW, I didn't pull the number out of thin air and linked the source.
Anyone arguing Twitter employees are not paid well and don’t get a lot of benefits most of us will never get are either trolling or uninformed. Elon is using this to his advantage, as he should. I would expect any job with that sort of pay and amenities would require a pretty extreme amount of dedication. If the employee isn’t dedicated, then Musk saves on average $273,000 a year. I’m certain he’ll be able to replace them if there is the need. All of these are things Musk has been telegraphing openly for months. He wants a reduced workforce at Twitter. He’s told us this numerous times.
I don't think you understand different types of corporate compensation packages. The genesis of unlimited PTO was as an accounting trick. In many organizations (and in some state law) accrued PTO has to be paid out at the end of employment. So instead of saying, you have 25 days of PTO, you say, "you have unlimited PTO" and poof, PTO no longer an agreed upon piece of the compensation with a definable dollar value.
Half your inane posts in pretty much every thread are this same meaningless attempt at saying people can't talk about what's happening at twitter by using tweets. Why?
I fully understand each concept. The point is you’re making $273,000 a year regardless of how many days you take off. I’m going to take that perk all day long over a lower salary where I have a limited PTO balance that would bring me to $273,000 if paid out to me. It’s not as if companies don’t adjust your regular pay to recoup that PTO balance payout. You are not getting a leg up on the company under either structure.
I’m sorry the point is lost on you. Are you one of those people who were on Twitter last night saying the app was going to crash, due to the resignations?
not sure I get this continued point. The discussion isn’t that twitter is a awful product. many of us use it frequently. The jest is musk appears to make awful decisions to this point. Some of his decisions he later tried to walk back. Ie buying the company then try to get out of that. Brag about total free speech, then claim no change and they will still censor offensive tweets. Layoff employees and try to bring them back. Now it’s reported employees are leaving due to bad morale. We’ll see how all of this impacts the product.
I used three sites (that I often use when matching salary for our staff). The three sites cover all job within Twitter (only the last link will let you see the data before promoting you for an account).
Advertisers were running for the doors before employers. Daughter’s friend is a media planner/buyer at Starcom. They’re pulling clients out like they’re in a burning building. You might as well be pulling for Vanderbilt tomorrow.
