Don’t work for SKP now but interviewed with them and have a few friends who work there. It seems like a solid practice, lots of smart people. Their market is mostly international, from my understanding. Revenue was projected to grow considerably in the future. Also, their annual holiday party in Germany is a huge deal.

Anyone knows why there’s such a great gap in salary? Tomorrow I’ll have the interview so any comments could be helpful. Thx
