The amount of on-site only job listings now in 2024 is insane. I cannot believe you people will work for these companies and managers that require on-site and not fight back. We're losing our power. I hope nobody applies to these jobs. Datadog, on-site only in NYC, Paris, Boston and Tel Aviv.. lmao. I live in one of the USA HCOL cities (not those, I'm Denver/Austin) and I wouldn't go near those places rent wise. $350…

Skill growth while working remotely slows and plateaus. There's plenty of evidence for this at this point, and I attribute most of the catastrophe in junior engineers at the big companies to it. I'd rather work hybrid, getting working time at home is great, but I'm not foolish enough to cripple myself long-term by insisting on favoring short-term comfort.

Do you work for global companies? I'm in a major city that has a horrible/non-existant tech comnmunity so if I took a "local" job I'd drop my salary by at least $80k. I have worked for Denver companies and the vibe is completely different though, which is nice. Like, everyone will know Wednesday is a great skiing day so half the company leaves to go ski and nobody cares. Or we have hockey playoffs or whatever everyone expects you might be celebrating.

Can't do that at my globo corp which can barely handle setting meetings in my time zone.. but pays way more..

How did you determine this and how could someone else verify it?

I don't know if I'd outright call them fake but I've gone through https://hnhiring.com/ which aggregates these posts a few times with an absolutely impeccable and perfect resume for some companies in a fairly niche role, I'm a Staff level SRE, so way less common than a SWE, less job postings, and I've never received a reply to any of them when I can absolutely guarantee you that me as a hiring manager seeing my resum…

Maybe the issue is that you are too talented / experienced / demanding to look for a job in this thread? Most offers here come from small startups or teams that are unable to pay $500/h or 1M in TC.

FWIW I've been hired three times by companies I found in these threads and spent more than seven years with them. Though I'm not a 10x developer by any means and keep my expectations at an average level too.

At the Careers page it says "Remote - Americas" and then in the actual position's page it says "For this position, we're looking for someone in North America." So it's North America, not Americas.

Fixed, thanks! We're open to North/Central/South America, I think that text was unintentionally copied from a different role.

Most companies don't need anywhere near my level of dist experience and I'm totally aware of that. I'm at an AWS-using company now so it's all basic terraform and CI work but previously I built a literal AWS/Google Cloud kubernetes competitor for a CDN so I dealt with the actual backend of k8s a lot which nobody but CDNs really need. CRIO/Containerd/virtio secure container sort of stuff. Cgroup manipulation at the lowest syscall levels.

I'm not pedigreed though. I can't get hired at Google/FAANG because I'm not good enough at compsci/programming to pass any of their coding/committee interviews. I really thought I'd find my way into G, interviewed there with many referrals, etc, but they have no interest. And now I don't even want to go there. My dream companies have dropped to a handful, like Pixar, Nvidia, Arm types. But I don't have the CS. "Get better at programming" .. yeah.. I need to.

So I'm in this weird spot where my salary is basically stuck. I'm at around 17 years of experience (I turned 40 today but have worked on bsd/linux since a kid) so who knows what the next 20+ years will look like. Maybe I'm pricing myself out of work.

Senior SRE work at this level seems to be 180-250 and you're lucky to get anywhere near that 250 unless you work at FAANG/Datadog/blahblah. Datadogs one of the highest paying SRE groups I'm aware of, but non-remote.

For those posting REMOTE (US) or Washington State-based jobs, please provide salary ranges in accordance with RCW 49.58.110. The civil penalties for not doing so can be significant.

I don't think this is something anyone has to worry about at all, assuming their actual job listing has the information.

You can run banner ads saying you're hiring remote Devs without specifying all the legally required things about salary, non-discrimination, accomodations, etc.

Unless we're now at a point that posting a link and providing some information about the page on the other side of that link requires you to also comply legally with everything that page is required to post?
