I work in a network (like in computer networking, not setting up events) company where I get paid 75% of the FAANG salary for an equivalent role, working one-third of the hours expected from the median FAANG worker. My company has been freezing hiring for the past 3 years. There is no risk of competition.
But why should I risk being identified by mentioning the company's name for no gain other than the fleeting thought of appreciation from a random anonymous HN user?
