REMOTE ONLY GitLab - We're hiring production engineers, service engineers, developers, business development reps, and director level positions, see https://about.gitlab.com/jobs/ We're a remote only company so everyone can participate and contribute equally. GitLab Community Edition is an open-source Ruby on Rails project with over 1000 contributors.

The rent multiplier for Seattle in the salary calculator is really low. :(

Oakland is almost that low and it's a 10-minute BART ride from downtown SF. It's ridiculous to have that much differential within a short commute distance, not to mention the variety of neighborhoods even within cities.

I can't disagree. I love Gitlab but it would be hard to take a > 50% pay cut if I were to work there.

That being said, I have full confidence in Gitlab and know they'll continue to improve these things!

Are there any resources for those of us persistently looking for jobs? I graduated from CMU with a CS degree in 2004 but never found an entry level job. Everyone tells me it should be easy to find one and then gets upset when I ask where. I am a C/C++ programmer just trying to survive.

AngelList is a popular job hunting site in the Bay Area. Entry level jobs may be hard to come by though.

While I appreciate the transparency, I don't think such large salary differences are reasonable especially with remote work. In the end you compete globally for remote employees and it possible to work remote for SV companies and get somewhat similar salaries than the onsite employees. ...and of course is living much more expensive in SV but I don't see why that should be "subsidized". No harm in people realizing tha…

Holy hell, you aren't joking. I compared my city with SF in their calculator, and they pay 3,6 times more for someone in SF! That means I can get a $160k rise just by moving to SF ! This seems super duper broken.

You will also spend 3,6 times more money while living in San Francisco.
