Our current Tech industry is hella pretentious. So, say that you’re able to bypass the stigmas of not having a “real” degree, or “experience”, biased interviews that filter on “culture fit” and ability to solve riddles and land a $50k “entry-level” software engineering position.

Either you need to hire a new Data Analyst, or I need to ask my boss for a raise.

You have a degree? How long have you been programming for s living? Not trying to be facetious here, it’s very likely you could get paid that in Boston now. Especially if you’re a strong negotiator.

I have the academic and industry creds to back me up, but we’re not talking about “me” here. We’re talking about the students whom you will be setting up with unrealistic expectations and a tithe of 17% of their annual salary (starting at $50).

Anyway... I’m at work now. Gotta get back to earning my keep, cause as I said... Boston is expensive.

And if any student were offered a $50k/yr job in Boston I would encourage them not to take it. Even without an income share agreement it’d be tough to make it on that salary, and our students can do better. Now $55k/yr in rural Ohio? Sure.

Damn, bro... we never even went out for a beer. We lived within our frugal AF budget and STILL came up short.
