> $20,000 for 4 to 6 months of work for a software engineer is an insult.

In SV, the company is from HK. If that offer was ridiculous too, she should have said as much.

I’ve been offered flat 200$ for jobs that cost >10k$. Your clients might not know the price of your labor, it’s your job to inform them.

It says “founded”. Their terms of service point to Analogue Enterprises Limited, registered in HK.

Founded is a typical weasel word because people tend to be more trusting of american companies.

Either way, the founder is American so they would know if their offer was competitive or not with other American salaries.
