29 year old pp teacher here. Do you really work 5 hours per night after a full day at school? I don't know how. I can barely keep up with what I'm doing.


I think she meant 5 hours total, so one hour a night for five nights.

I would say yes, you are, but it depends so much on industry. You will not like what I tell you as a comparison (35, $300k total comp, generally 9:30-6 but always available on weekends if something comes up however it usually doesnt, white collar job). But what that blurb doesn’t tell you is the hours I put in to get here, and the value I’m creating at my organization.

If you feel undervalued, which I’m guessing you do based on your post, you should start looking elsewhere.

I come home around 5pm each day but usually work from 8pm-midnight at home most nights and all day Sunday.

I am 32 and make 60k/year as a teacher.

Btw PP here. It's not as oustanding as you think. If you want someone local who pays well, look at PayPal. I have a few friends there at VP level who are close to a mill total comp.

Aritificial intelligence. Hot area.


Do you want to get over that hump? What is artificial intelligence? Military background?


PhD in CS. Non military background or work, although obviously also a hot area for them.

Artificial intelligence is a bit of a misnomer for machine learning: given a series of training data, can you teach a computer to draw inferences from that data? For instance, you feed a computer images of biopsy slides from patients with and without cancer, then you feed it a test - something you know has/does not have cancer present and ask the computer if it does. It's gotten to the point where the computers (on some tasks) are better (and obviously) faster than humans. The applications are numerous - from the fun (teaching a computer to play video games), to the more practical (voice recognition, speech recognition, etc).



How much of that salary is base vs. profit sharing/bonus vs. stock options/stock? Are you a 1099 contractor or a W-2?

990 K is huge for someone technical. Even at the CTO level.


W-2. More than half is stock. The figure reflects the amount vested annually though, not total or unvested portions.

Company has done well. Absent the stock price appreciation, it would be closer to $600K.
