Re: Searchable and sortable H1B salary database
#42I created a site similar to this few weeks ago https://h1binfo.org/ It has 5M+ records containing H1B salary data from 2014 - 2023 and uses Meilisearch.
My employers data seems to be accurate. Great work, fast search too.
For the uninformed - what is the point of these sites? Do they serve as proxy for a more general wage database? I’m guessing there’s some disclosure law for h1b

Search is very fast and also found my employer name on the list. easy to use as well.

Good tech companies pay employees higher than what is listed in the filing, they just don't want to divulge how much they're paying in public records. This is totally fine, there is nothing illegal about paying more.
Mediocre companies (or good startups who aren't considering this stuff too deeply) file with the exact salary.
Scam companies pay below what they filed (illegal).

That’s the idea. At least in theory, H1B salaries are meant to be in line with what native workers are paid.

It's just one position, not an average. There are other positions with the same title with higher salaries. Quantitative Research can be anything, basically just an Excel inputer could be called that. I think salary expectations on HN, in tech and in the US are a bit off. Do you really believe someone crunching numbers is worth USD 600000 per year?
There is a huge hype machine on the internet where people want to believe there there are crazy high salaries in other companies. Even though they don't know anyone who works there, interviewed or otherwise even bothered to look into some actual evedence. I have had interviews with citadel and know people whose have roles with that title. Total comp is slightly below what a comparable person would make at Google or F…
Honestly I’m badly out of date, and all the gossip I’m hearing is that this pay isn’t prevailing anymore.
But a new grad returning intern was doing 380 at FB Thor first year in cash and stock.
And why not? These companies are printing 10MM per marginal hire.
Why is it a crime that the people doing the 18 hour days capture a bit of it?

Base, without equity
That's still low, that's an E7/M2 salary, VP is at least three levels higher (D1, D2, VP1).
Non-engineering roles at Meta have different salary bands and RSU comp per level than engineering ones (usually less and sometimes a lot less).

Product managers for Meta have similar pay range than eng.

I think a lot of the comments where people casually dismiss salaries in the hundreds of thousands a year as too low are just attempts at flexing.
Its Citadel, not some random company. They are infamous here in Chicago for paying people gobs of money and working you 80 hours/week. I would be highly suspect of any Citadel position under 100K.

Quantitative Research as Citadel Securities is a set of specific, highly-paid, jobs.
And often paid in either bonuses or options. I haven't gone through the website much, does it distinguish pay vs. other compensation?
