You should’ve asked them “do you also mimic google’s compensation?”

I work for a faang subsidiary. We pay well below average salary and equity. We finally got one nice perk, a very good 401k match. A few months later it was announced that the 401k match would be scaled back "to come in line with what our parent company offers". I thought about asking "will be getting salaries or equity in line with what our parent company offers?" but that would have been useless. Management doesn't care. I'm job hunting.

Oh man I needed that in the clip for like a dozen interviews a decade ago.

This zinger I have to remember for the next time someone tries this whiteboard BS on me!
