I was offered 80 right out of school. But I was also offered 50. It depends on what the company can afford to and if they are competitive. there are so many factors that play into salary determinations that I think people could lose sight of that by looking at this poll.
Uses government stats and asks you for all your information and then gives you averages and percentiles based on that. A much more accurate way of comparing or delving into your own worth to the industry.
I just think women would read this and believe that this company is looking for a male, not a female. I know I would. It would emphasize a bro type of environment.
Your only reference to "he" being gener neutral was from the 1700s... do you have a modern example?
In my case, it's because my gender is not important to my identity and the constant harping about "women in tech" means that people pay way too much attention to my gender. I'm just another person!
Right. I understand this. I wouldn't want to be singled out or considered "special" or "different" simply for being a woman who happens to also program. At the same time I do have a very strong gender identity so I wouldn't be comfortable at all if I felt like I had to downplay or hide my gender to fit in. So while I do consider being a woman extremely important to my identity, it has nothing to do with me also being interested in tech and computer science.
