Ever wondered how much employees with your job title in competing firms are earning?(will certainly come in handy if you want to change jobs!). Well, wonder no longer: it’s been anonymously put online by people working for the competitor. For instance, to see how much a Software Development Engineer II earns at Amazon USA? Do this:
- Go to http://www.glassdoor.com
- Sign in (register for free)
- In the search box at top, choose ‘Company’, enter ‘Amazon’ and ‘United States’ in the adjoining boxes. Hit ‘Enter’
- Voila, the Software Development Engineer II and a host of other salaries at Amazon are displayed!
I mean, is anything confidential nowadays? You can even find out what some people had for breakfast if they posted it on Facebook. In addition, Facebook gives you deep insight into the innermost workings of someone’s mind (use this to develop him as a customer or potential customer).
With great data comes great responsibility. Use it wisely.
