No negotiating pay rises, no wondering if other are being paid more for the same work, just an objective scale that everyone is placed on.
No wondering if we're lagging behind the rest of the industry, as they include the data set they use to calculate them based on available salary reporting (and also made sure we were paid 10% more that the industry average).
Could never go back to working for a company that expects people to negotiate individual salaries, even if I could get more, it just isn't worth all the extra effort and stress.<|eor|><|sor|>I recently moved to an institutation that pays in salary bands as well. They have five levels, and then 4 to 6 sub-bands within those levels. So a fresh entry level role is level 1-1, whilst senior exec would be level 5-6 for instance.
When I was offered the job, I was told the position was a level 4 role. Great, but because I'm mega experienced, I told them I'm starting at the top sub-band, not the bottom one (so level 4-6 instead of level 4-1). Company agreed, and here I am a month later very happy.<|eor|><|eols|><|endoftext|> | 449 |

He later found out that he was making less than new junior devs. He asked for more money, and they told him that "he was getting by just fine, why did he need more money?"
He didn't fuck up any code, he didn't approve code that would break the company. (He was worried they might try something legal against him.)
What he did do was absolutely stop caring about any best practices at all. You had spaghetti code that worked? Sure, looks good. Weird functions you left in on accident? Don't worry about it.
The whole time he did this, he was looking for a new job. By the time he left, the codebase was absolutely shit. Practically unreadable in places, but it worked still. They never fixed it, either, because they ended up laying almost everyone off (myself included) about 8 months after he left. Then later they went under completely.
Start ups provide pretty good stories, though.<|eor|><|eols|><|endoftext|> | 338 |

From Wikipedia:
> The name "C sharp" was inspired by the musical notation where asharpindicates that the written note should be made asemitonehigher inpitch.[36]This is similar to the language name ofC++, where "++" indicates that a variable should be incremented by 1 after being evaluated. The sharp symbol also resembles aligatureof four "+" symbols (in a two-by-two grid), further implying that the language is an increment of C++.[37]

Edit: To all the people replying with a variation of "High barrier to entry = higher pay", yes, I'm aware of that. That's what I meant by education since it's usually the relevant barrier of entry here.
I'm not saying the grocery store cashier should get as much as a doctor or whatever, I am however saying that these workers shouldn't be treated like trash as they often are by both managers and customers and should receive more than they currently do since they're often severely underpaid and have to work in abusive workplace conditions.
The free market hasn't regulated itself in a satisfactory way to preserve the minimum of worker rights and pretending otherwise is just being out of touch.
And to the people saying "It's just a shorthand", yes, it is and I'm aware of that. Unfortunately, that shorthand has been corrupted when making the transition from econ academia / policy making / whatever niche context from which it came to the mainstream.
There are a lot of people that genuinely believe low skill jobs mean jobs that don't need skills and unfortunately that does dominate the conversation and needs to be addressed.
Finally, admitting that "low skill" jobs are hard in many ways (most of them different than the ways software dev is hard) won't diminish your accomplishments or make your job seem easier or whatever.

My software job may be "easy" to do, but still requires a 4 year college degree, lots of domain knowledge and previous industry experience (i.e. **skill**).
A job at a warehouse lifting heavy things, or at a busy fast food store, or dealing with customers in retail all take a ton of **effort**, but a random 16 year old can apply to them and start working the same day.

Finally, admitting that "low skill" jobs are hard in many ways (most of them different than the ways software dev is hard) won't diminish your accomplishments or make your job seem easier or whatever.
This isn't a zero sum game, you can advocate for better positions for other people without lowering your own (or at the very least empathize with other's people struggles without trying to put them down).<|eor|><|sor|>It's all about how difficult it is to replace the worker. Even low skill jobs can be very good, but it's usually because no one else can/wants to do them.
For example, Fast Food and many cheap Eateries haves gone to great lengths to make food prep as idiot proof as possible. They can take in almost any person, get them to understand the basics, and put them to work in a week or less. McDs literally trains people with learning disabilities to handle the fry station in just a few hours. This allows companies to not be picky with workers so a replacement is only a phone call away.
Meanwhile, many white collar jobs either require/want people with workable knowledge of excel and often have to teach them to use the truly awful UI software for their shitty applications or how their industry even works. When they bring someone in, it can take a while to bring them up to speed, or they outright won't even bother to train for fear of the worker getting poached by a better company afterward. The labor supply for them is limited, so a worker dropping them for greener pastures could actually hurt the company so they try to keep you tied down.
The only leverage you as a worker have to fight for better compensation, is the ability and willingness to leave your employer. This is why unions are so, so important. When the union removes the labor supply, and the company can't replace them, the company falls apart.<|eor|><|eols|><|endoftext|> | 686 |

My software job may be "easy" to do, but still requires a 4 year college degree, lots of domain knowledge and previous industry experience (i.e. **skill**).
A job at a warehouse lifting heavy things, or at a busy fast food store, or dealing with customers in retail all take a ton of **effort**, but a random 16 year old can apply to them and start working the same day.

This. Lots of convos about wage vs skill miss that 'skill' is only a rough proxy for the true metric which matters, which is supply. You could have the most difficult job in the world, but if there is a huge and ready supply of workers, then you'll have lower wages. This is why game devs tend to make less money than engineers or other forms of developers -- because lots of people want to make games as a passion, and so the boss can replace you more easily.<|eor|><|eols|><|endoftext|> | 397 |
