It depends on who you work for. If you work with us at BankSimple, you'd make the same as if you worked in our Brooklyn or SF offices. Normalizing salaries across our three locations is the only fair thing to do, regardless of the fact that we think talented developers are worth a premium.
I would say the same as you would get anywhere else +/-10%.<p>There have been a lot of threads recently around salary. I'm pretty sure it is entirely based on your willingness to negotiate to the best of your abilities. Yes, you need to be willing to step up to the plate and negotiate.<p>Thankfully we work in a very mobile and fluid industry. I know people who live in Oklahoma and work for well known startups that get paid a very competitive wage even for NYC standards. Location is becoming less of a factor in the war for talent.
