What's your role, and do you feel that you are fairly compensated? It's pretty widely believed that tech workers are paid well, but I'm guessing that varies among different companies and locations.

I’m a Sr Business Architect that is more like a Solutions architect. But I made the terrible mistake of undervaluing myself almost 10 years ago. Now Micron has a policy on how much raise you can receive and I am severely underpaid compared to others in the same role.. like 25-30k underpaid. Make sure you’re initially hiring deal is fair…

Good luck! Hope you find a role with the compensation you deserve.

Received an offer from a top FAANG for a 250% increase in TC. However, I was initially interviewing for a position that was remote and yet the final offer does not provide that option, non-negotiable. I have a wife and 2-year-old child and another one due in 7 months, and currently live near both sets of grandparents.

Is working at a top FAANG really worth that kind of cost? I'm leaning heavily 'no' but it's not making it easy to sleep at night knowing I'm sitting on this kind of offer!
