    Avg Dev salary in the UK is £40-60k which is $43-65k. If your really good you can get 80-100k in London but you need to be genius level. This equates to about $88-110k a year. London is more expensive than Seattle! So new graduates at Microsoft are making more than top level senior Veterans in the UK. That's crazy!!

    I want to give a big shout-out to all those working tirelessly to earn a living and build wealth during this period. My wife and I are both retired as an engineer, we are debt-free, and we're living smart and frugal with our money. Despite the economy challenges, we're still earning passive income thanks to our savings and investments. Investing lifestyle has enabled us to earn a steady monthly income through passive means, and we're grateful for it

    AHHH. I'm dying over this woman's explanation on how she requested a raise. She noticed that salaries were 15% higher than what she was making, but she thought they wouldn't give her that, so she decided to ask for 11 and they replied with 7. It would've been totally reasonable for her to ask for 15 and they probably would've come back with 11. I hate that this was given as a good strategy because it's actually an example of how women negotiate themselves down when they ask for something, only to get negotiated down further. She deserved 15% just to be on par with what others were making, but instead she's still behind.

    Dang when I joined Microsoft Redmond in 2019 the typical offer for new grads was 109k base, 120k stocks (3.5 year vesting), 30k bonus. Surprised that it didn’t go up much with inflation.

    Having worked on various projects across a bunch of orgs, the advice of "learn how to showcase your skills in a sentence" is spot on. this is useful in discussions with recruiters, the interview loop members, the hiring manager, and when you are explaining to others that your idea is the right one and why.
