Game developers sharing their salaries on Twitter

Basically google and FB pay the best, and then msft, amazon and apple are second tier as far as compensation goes.

Twitter, square, uber, netflix, linked-in, pinterest, dropbox, airbnb, etc are all middle-big sized and are fairly variable comp wise.

I thought Netflix paid more than Google / FB (from online hearsay).

My understanding is that the 'Flix pays straight cash -- big ole sacks of money twice a month.

The other orgs pay in things like bonuses or RSUs.

Total comp may be as good or higher, but those aren't locked in a specific rate the way a direct deposit to your bank account is; e.g. you could get less bonus, or the stock price could drop, etc.
