they raise a decent point. there's countless FAANG people on here making $250,000+/yr plus RSU and claim they are underpaid. What happens when they end up in the real world being offered half that with no stock options?

There are dozens, maybe hundreds, of tech companies in the US hiring remotely with compensation between $180k - $250k right now. RSUs might not be the same as SV companies, but we all know those RSUs are worth sh*t right now anyway.

But those companies aren't looking to hire the 10,000+ developers that have been, or will be layed off in the coming year.

Probably start a company with the money they've (hopefully) saved, and make more than slaving away for half their old salary (if half is the only option, which it probably isn't).

Thats a good idea. Not sure its broadly applicable in events of large layoffs.
