> Dinosaur companies

I'm curious what are the dinosaur companies in your mind.

Some "dinosaurs" are actually extremely technical and on top of their shit, and some companies HNers/Redditors/LWers love for their supposed engineering chops have their pants off.

Also the number I gave was for a sexy publicly listed tech company that a lot of HNers try to Leetcode grind to.

> more than their Assistant Regional Managers

In most companies outside of the High Tech and Finance sector, margins are extremely low and even a GM will earn at most $150k and maybe $20-30k stock, despite owning a 9 figure BU.

Come off of it. This guy: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phil_Venables_(computer_scie...

isn’t making only $500k a year in total comp. Nor is an assistant regional manager at say, Target, making only $180k/year.

Quit making things up.
