My buddy is a hardware engineer on iPhone. He owned the front facing camera on the iPhone 13. I think his comp was somewhere just under $300k last year (at 25yo), but he was working insane hours, both in duration and in timing in order to coordinate production with the factories in China

Sure...they would have to pay a TON & respect you.

I mean if you care about making money more than actually living the only life you will ever have, then sure.

I am not being snarky, but it’s weird to me that anyone is surprised by this. It’s common knowledge that Apple works their people to the bone…

Help me ask for a raise in my upcoming performance review? In sum, my company’s HQ is in Texas and I feel I’m being paid a Texas wage when I live in Los Angeles (the role is remote). We do have a San Francisco office and I want to ask my boss to match me what staff are making there. As that’s more comparable. Based off of Glassdoor, my salary matches Texas’s exactly and SF has the same role at 10k more. Should I show him the Glassdoor page? Don’t want to come off too strong. Please advise

Director interview after super day?

Had a super day last week and I thought it went well, partner sent back a nice message to my thank you note. Trying not to read too into it, but is it normal to have an interview with another director after having already interviewed with a director (and a MD)?

I did mention I have interest in a specific area with a director last week and it looks like this next director I’m interviewing primarily works in that area.
