Indeed, we have a fair salary model but not a fair pricing (by country). But we have a fair billing policy (https://help.slite.com/en/articles/2008029-what-is-slite-s-f...) and most of our customers are global actors that earn money from high cost of living countries.
> I think that's wrong, and just a way for the company to save as much money as possible. A fair salary should be a % of the $ value you create minus local taxes and expenses needed for your position(equipment, software, training...). TBH with you, 95% of our employees are paid on an index that above France (our HQ). So I'm not sure we pay less in the end.
> For example personally I don't plan in staying long in my current city/country. But if I accepted local salaries I would never be able to save enough to move comfortably. We aim at the 75th percentile of each market (based on an engineer role). I'm sure this would give you enough to move comfortably
> Also local purchasing power usually doesn't apply to objects(electronics, cars...) We index purchasing power on the monthly rent, which accounts for 30-60% of wage (depending on countries/cities).
I understand your opinions, and I don't really want to change that-- but I deeply appreciate you took the time to read and comment. Have a great day!
While working at a company that builds an alternative to meetings, calls and office-friendly practices, I had lots of questions about "would this work for me?". Or people were saying "async seems promising, but I'm sure it's only for developers". This is untrue.
I take the design is not your taste, I'll pass this feedback to the team. Thanks Dimgl
