Do you feel like you're being properly paid based on your experience and what you bring to the table? Does anyone think they're actually being overpaid?

Lol I am so overpaid. AI can fill in slide content. Comments are addressed in 1 minute with AI. Honestly, sometimes I don't even read what it writes. When I fix it, sometimes I get worse feedback. On WFH days I can be finished in an hour and then just mouse jiggle for the day

I switched jobs because I wasn’t really sure what value I was adding on my team. Like I did quarter close stuff but then would spend 2 months trying to seem important.

Those are questions I ask myself sometimes. I've stumbled into a situation where I do think I'm overpaid. I base that on having worked jobs as a student that let me see, and experience, how hard some people work. I mean, we're not doing any heavy lifting. On the other hand, if the system says what I do is worth what I'm paid, then I suppose what I bring to the table is worth it.

Mainly because I’m doing staff Aug instead of actual consulting

I believe I am.

My last role prior to this was an exec-level fed and I was very underpaid for what I brought to the table and was doing, but that's the case for pretty much every exec-level fed.

In my current role, I'm paid well for what I actually do, but I'm very much underutilized and underscoped. 🤷

Hi all, was hoping for clarity on offers from FANG/Tier 2 tech I received recently. Base pay is still within range of 130-150K, but equity components have dropped dramatically. For reference, for similar positions, I was receiving grants of 150K - 200K over 4 years for data analyst positions (4-5 YOE) in Aug’21-Feb’22. For personal reasons, I did not accept these offers. Now the equity grants are coming in like 50-70K over 4 years. Is this market wide for non SWE/PM roles due to stock market?
