        Are you kidding me? Median = middle employee in a sorted list; Mean = average or typical. You are misdirecting people by calling the median the typical pay. It is not. In all statistics, your statement is invalid. Literally 50% of employees in a company can make 3x the median.

        1,1,1,1,26,900,900,900,900. Median =26. Mean/Average = 363. The average/typical worker makes $363, not $26. Literally 1 person in the whole company could be making $26. Everything being published is $26. Not representative of the typical worker which averages $363.

        Profit is wage theft. Workers need to fight for a modern living and not settle for the scraps and humiliation allowed by the bosses. Organize.

        Hey socialist! Without profit, there are no wages. There is no economy. Go live in Venezuela for a while and see what your kind of world really is!

        They clearly don't include "contractors" from 3rd party employment agencies that work at the company full time... was my experience at goog

        Median doesn't do a good job of informing salaries for a particular career level. Ex. Median is meaningless for senior engineers who may be earning far above. For this I reccomend:https://www.levels.fyi/

        1. People who run businesses in general do not compensate their employees fairly, at least in America. 2. How much is enough? If you work for someone and you can't afford food and housing, fuck that. 3. Based on what? People have no fucking money.

        Should we make more decisions based upon people complaining? Would that work better than our current method?

        And retires at 80% of pay after 20 Years and hardly works during those years because very few gov agencies are actually accountable.
