I’m interviewing for a remote Technical Analyst position @ Facebook (Meta) where Colorado’s “estimated” salary is $91.2k/yr. I’ve heard that remote jobs tend to pay a little less than on-site, but I live in the DC Metropolitan area where cost of living is insane. I don’t think that # is unfair.. but it’s on the lower end of average. What number should I be looking for? **Context: about 3 YOE, entry level position, no big projects to leverage— just skills

Remote is not lower pay - it is the cost of labor in that location. I have a colleague who just converted to perm remote who got a pay increase (as the location moved to has a highest cost of labor… note: different to cost of living)

Interesting! I’ll definitely look into this some more

Define skills? Id say that salary at 3 YoE with no hard skills is fair, but without knowing your background totally I’m not sure. Anywhere between 120-150 TC would be my target.

Thanks for the insight!

I’m remote in dc (I started prepandemic and recently switched to full remote). Salary is higher in dc. It’s on par with Menlo Park.

Nice, this is super helpful 👍

The recruiter on the first call should be asking about salary. Give them a number you're looking for.

What you are seeing is just base pay - meta gives stock which is where majority of pay lies. They do not have to disclose stock and only base pay under Colorado law.

Definitely seems low. Maybe pitch your pay range based on your location and they can be flexible?

I interviewed for a technical Sourcer role there and the base was 98K - Total Comp 111K. That was based off area, no negotiation.

Super helpful! Thanks

I think there’s a specific law for Colorado so most companies specify base salary/range for there. Final offer depends on your location.

I would target 130k - 150k, with 3 YOE.

Ask for 160k

I would think somewhere right around a base of $100k plus a target bonus around $15-20k is what you should expect.

Can we do a quick round robin of salaries for folks in the Seattle area? Currently making $146K at Starbucks. 32 yo woman.

Background: got a promotion at current company that didn't come with sufficient increase . After stating my case I was told it would be evaluated next October, which is what prompted the initial job search.
