Levels.fyi collects compensation offers from tech workers and aggregates them to enable pay comparisons across the industry. Over the past year, 42 tech workers submitted pay packages exceeding $1 million. Those reported figures exclude future stock appreciation, and tech compensation is largely equity-based. Levels.fyi data guru Hakeem Shibly ranked the submissions by company. OpenAI appears especially prominent among the top offers, while Nvidia appears lower than expected. The dataset relies on employee self-reporting, so rankings may be imperfect but still reveal notable pay distributions.
Levels.fyi gets tech workers to submit their compensation offers and then crunches the numbers so folks can weigh how their pay compares to others across the industry. Over the past year, 42 tech workers have sent in pay packages worth more than $1 million. This is before any stock appreciation, which is important to note because tech compensation is mostly equity-based. Levels.fyi data guru Hakeem Shibly ranked these by company.
OpenAI really stands out here. And Nvidia seems too low to me. Again, this is based on employees sharing the offers they get, so it's not perfect. For instance, it could mean OpenAI employees desperately want everyone to know how much they make. Still, this ranking is really interesting: Sign up for BI's Tech Memo newsletter here.
