And to the "outsiders" from outside US, it should be written that 40-45 percent is taken away as taxes. So, if someone is making a total comp of 200k, it is basically 120k. This should be written in bold on this website.

Actually i would say, instead of having these charts which compare total comp, its better to have a survey on how much people save after rent, taxes, and basic living expenses (not including loans etc.)

I applied to this company a year ago. I completed the assignment which took a lot of time, and gave 2 interviews but this sh*t company never responded me back. Please avoid applying at such company who does not care about your time and effort.

from the ask-hn dept.

I myself have done a lot of frontend development and UI/UX design. But I feel at my workplace, frontend dev is given less importance and money. :(On the contrary, I think designing good UI/UX requires a lot of creativity and hard work (specially eyes get strained a lot after styling at pixel level).While backend is all about logic, and writing organized code.
