I'm making $135K in SF, working for Apple through an agency (so no equity or bonuses). 9 YoE. After checking blind and some other sites, I feel like I could be making a lot more...

Any tips? I've heard from some FAANG recruiters recently but don't know how much to ask for so I haven't responded. Don't know shit about money :(

My portfolio is mostly sites (campaign/e-comm/web apps) and now design system stuff if that helps.

Make sure when you are checking Blind you are comparing like skill sets. Blind is full of developers. Top SDEs are few in number, in high demand and the best are worth 10x their peers. If you ask for something crazy and don't have the skills to justify the raise the recruiter just will tell you there is misalignment.

I’m no expert and kind of in the same struggle negotiating in a tech interview right now. My guess is you could make 160+ base plus shares and good benefits at a faang. Maybe more depending on the company and how sweet and high profile your work is. Curious to see what others think.

I have an interview for a LTC/Rehab Nurse Manager, Infection Preventionist position next week. My base salary is $40/hour as a charge nurse. With overtime I’ll be finishing the year about $15000 above my base pay. I have questions: first, I know I’ll be putting in at least the same number of hours I’m current working (50+/wk). How do I leverage that to avoid a pay cut. Also, any tips from people in this position?

I had a call w/ a recruiter and after hearing about the job, I *really* want it. But I’m worried I priced myself out of the role. I sent my resume/portfolio after and haven’t even gotten a reply that she received it, and I’ve followed up. I’ve been getting recruiter messages offering salaries up to 120k for copy/senior copy roles (which surprised me) so I gave 110-120 as a range on the call. She hesitantly said she thought 115 would be OK. But wondering if the salary could be the issue? Thought?

Is Operations paid the least at your respective firms? I was hired to a Client Service Delivery role with a heavy focus on project management. I regularly interface with leadership internally and at the client. But, I am aligned to the “Operations” capability and make the least of my teammates who perform seemingly identical work but are aligned to “Strategy and Consulting.” I worry I’m on a career path to being paid the least wherever I go, because Operations is in my title and background.
