I’m not sure on a state level, but on a federal level there are GS-12/13 non supervisory engineers making $78k/94k in low cost of living areas. I’m not an engineer, but I don’t think it’s likely to at you’d come on as a 13, but potential room for growth there even outside of management.

Hi fishes, Need your help in deciding.
I've 2 offers. One from

Walmart Question

Does anyone know what range to expect as as a Trust and Safety Manager II? It would be with their new 3rd party online market that works with content creators to drive advertisement and sales. The recruiter I spoke with on the initial call was very persistent with a range but I told her I'd get back to her.

Also, if people with experience/knowledge could also share any relevant information such as WLB, work culture, etc from the Bay Area that would be very helpful. Walmart
