10/26 For companies that have offices in both N and S Cal and have
equivalent positions (manager, engr, sr. engr), are the pay
usually equivalent as well?
\_ At Intel they have a cost of living adjustment, so if you change
sites your pay is adjusted, I believe. It can easily be $10K+
living in NoCal (assuming same job title). Interesting, huh?
They have an entire chart listing all the sites w/multipliers.
\_ My company reserves the biggest multiplier for people working
in... Alaska.
\_ It's not a cost of living adjustment. It's a geographical
adjustment and it's not for cost of living, it's for cost of
/hiring/. -emarkp
\_ I don't know for sure, but it should be. Cost of living is
about the same. |
