Blind, the anonymous social network for verified corporate employees, released new compensation data for software engineers working at Amazon, Apple, Google, Meta, and Microsoft.
- Meta and Google offer the highest compensation, as measured by both job level and experience, though Amazon pays a lot for top engineers.
- Microsoft has many job levels, which can help increase promotions given, but employees report lower compensation compared to other companies.
- Promotions at Amazon may take longer and total compensation can vary widely, according to the Blind data.
- The data comes from self-reported compensation data from Blind users from January 2022 to August 2023.
