I'm about to apply for a new position as Product Designer. I have 3 years of experience based in NYC. Which companies should I apply to who have an excellent total compensation with a good work-life balance? Feel free to list any companies with great total comp with terrible work-life balance haha (might consider selling my soul for the $$)

Oh goodness. Well, any of the FAANG of course if you don't mind selling your soul. Dropbox, Uber, Microsoft are the top-paying.

How's the work life balance at Dropbox? I have heard about Uber and Microsoft.

You might be better off looking up Product Designer opportunities on LinkedIn and then narrowing your options before asking for feedback.

Yeah but I always see the big companies and I was wondering if that's just the algorithm pushing it

This is really random but there are lots of small apps and startups that are usually recruiting for those roles. Clue and Co-Star are some that come to mind, which probs gives away my gender haha. Might be worth looking at some of the products you already use and whether they're looking to start with?

My company historically paid base comp and bonus based on years out of law school. Level 1 is 1-9, and Level 2 is 10+. Diff if $50k+, easily. My team’s work isn’t distributed any differently based on seniority, and we’re all doing the same subject matter. We have a new GC changing it so bonus can be higher (but not lower) if you take on more work.

Do you think this is a fair system? Is it right to push for equal comp, especially given that there’s a new reward system for doing more work?
