Low pay is justified with “amazing culture.” I know engineers making 80k who would be making 150k in industry. Below average PTO and working on holidays such as NYE and Xmas eve. Not a ton of friendships in the office as far as I see - folks just seem heads down

80k? Their average salary on Glassdoor is over 6 figures. Is this just a tactic to get people in the door?
Asking because I’m currently being recruited by slalom and they refuse to talk salary. Am I wasting my time??

Why not tell them your salary? Wouldnt you just use it your current salary as the base and use it to build your case for more?

Great culture, great salary. I have zero complaints.

If you don't speak up at review time it's on you.

It’s a data analytics company with 5 PMs, was bought by a PE firm this year, and has a new (female) CEO as of Oct. Role is 50/50 hybrid, pays well vs what I make, and most importantly would be a foot in the door to PM. Is this a good place to be for PM? What else do I need to find out to know for sure?
