Deloitte Tax is giving all seniors and managers a $20k retention bonus to be paid out in April. Must pay back if you leave before 2 years. With market adjustments back in December, this retention bonus in April, regular bonuses to be paid out in May, and comp increases slated for June, surprised to say that Deloitte has really exceeded expectations to keep compensation competitive. Let the bidding war between firms continue to increase salaries.

Top tech companies: You don't know our stack? That's OK, we just want to hire the best engineers. We know you can learn the rest.

Mediocre companies and their recruiters: What? You don't have (3, 5, 10!) years of experience in our stack? Pass. You know statically typed languages, OOP, JavaScript, learned TypeScript, but you haven't used TS on a project? Pass. LOL 🤡

The best is when they ask for X years experience on a technology that hasn't existed that long.
