But muh unions!!!1!

Wow.. so violent crime in SF has the same rate as death by covid19? Puts things into perspective..

SF needs a Rudy Guiliani type.

Politicians should be the ones making policy based on the data available.

I posit you make a greater contribution to society by earning as much as you can by utilizing your talents, then donating the excess when you don’t need it anymore.

Thats why most of us are in industry ;)

Pre-registration is what funding committees and proposals are for. You get the funding, the experiment is approved, now go do it and publish the results.

It’s not just top-down pressure but bottom-up too. Your students, undergrads, grads, postdocs are also incentivized to publish as much as possible for their own careers. So you are supporting them.

PhD. From what I found, the most successful people are the ones that marry the technical with the business and consistently deliver value. So it’s not talk/hype, but real value and competitive advantage and ability to communicate and effectuate change.

If I can provide some guidance, there is no upside to share your data when you’re at a small company because it’s really easy to find who you are. If there is a way to obscure the company, for example, generalize to market cap or size ($1-3b mkt cap company with 2500-5000 employees) and bucket that way.

Just some anecdata, I’m in ml not in faang and make more than the top end of the survey in the OP.

If I were to give some guidance, I’d suggest skipping on faang as they top out where they top out, and go downstream to smaller public companies who are growing and where you can deliver real value. Companies like snapchat doubled in 1 year, square doubled in 1 year, etc etc. If you’re already joining a trillion dollar company you need to enter as a leader to earn the top end.

You’ll never see these stats because 1) you don’t gain anything from sharing and 2) it’s easy to find who you are at smaller companies.
