#2Good for the engineer who is an expert in those audio and video testing and can get hired for the role. We should be thankful engineering has provided many folk who were previously poor, an opportunity to rise to the middle class simply by studying and being smart.

#3$90000-$900000 seems like sort of a cop out on the spirit of the law

You're right but I think you're missing the point. Offering a range that broad in the job listing is just an effort to flaunt a law. That law was put into place to help the people you're talking about.

#5Is there really nothing in the law preventing companies from doing things like this? Could they say something even more absurd like $1-$1,000,000?

#6Given what I'm seeing on levels.fyi for Netflix, they sound like exactly the sort of company that should be revealing their salaries more and that this law was made for (and of course they mock by offering such a ridiculous range).

In the samples,
L5: 610k
L3: 70k

That's what lawyers are paid for. All tech companies in California can just pick this range $90K to $900K for every tech job. That way, one doesn't need to update the salary range field for every job.

#8Unsurprising. The ca law unfortunately isn’t robust enough. Standard deviation and inter quartile range is necessary in order to make any real assessment here. Ideally mean and median too.

#9Would be nice to see the total comp salary distribution for this kind of position.

Presumably it’s not actually complying with the law. Try telling a Jude listing a salary range between minimum wage and 1 billion per year counts as salary disclosure.
That said, this could easily become the norm should enough companies do the same thing.
