I'm overhearing some dude talking about his startup and he claims that Netflix pays data scientists $650k. He was disparaging another startup that paid "only" $125k. Does he know what he's talking about?
I over heard someone casually talking about a similar data scientist role at Netflix paying something along the lines of “only 550k”. I was shocked to say the least, but wouldn’t put it past that company to offer comp that high.
Netflix pays all cash yes so bases are astronomical but no equity and few benefits.
Makes sense. I think I read somewhere that Google’s average cost per employee is around 500k. That includes base, stock, bonuses, benefits, etc.
Plenty of benefits. In fact, likely better benefits than most tech companies. Up to one year maternity/paternity leave at full pay just to name one. Each employee decides how much of their Comp they want in cash vs stock options.
maybe he meant 650 dollars, like "they pay $650, k?"
😂
Per hour, k.
I am not there, but I am not surprised by the 650k number
Jesus. This must be an exception.
Holy smokes! I need to earn a data science degree now.
Netflix just pays a shit ton. Recruiters can make 215k(base)++
Well that’s total comp as someone already mentioned in the post. It’s === any L6 engineer salary at both fb and google.
Right- just putting it into perspective. Because you know, people usually assume is recruiters make pennies 🤣
Someone can earn $650k total Comp if they have the work experience and demonstrated impact to back it up. There are no salary ranges at Netflix.
Netflix has always been known for high TC but they get everything out of you while you work there. Once you aren’t needed you’re let go. Typically a short term job unless you’re a genius.
