[Grapevine’s Biggest Update] Launching Salaries on Grapevine

It’s been close to 10 days since we announced Salaries (beta) on Grapevine. This little baby product has gotten good traction, so we want to give it more love and develop it into something deep, and helpful Since launch, more than 10,000 people have used the product, and 4000+ have contributed their salary information anonymously :) We are working on making the product even better and make more data points available as we go. Thanks all for using, giving feedback. and sharing with friends/colleagues :)

Hi, everyone! I was wondering how the salaries feature works on Grapevine. What is the source of the information? Can anyone explain? Thanks!

The data nerd in me loves this feature very much! Pay transparency is very cool. Although, I'm miffed to realise that Big Tech compensation is still top of the market.

Hi Grapeviners Over the last month or so we announced two massive products that are as big as Grapevine itself: 

1. Private Company groups with verification 2. Salaries on Grapevine Thousands of you have since adopted these products, but most importantly, you gave us great feedback and we are working on making these more helpful Here’s what you can expect from Grapevine in the next few weeks: 1. Direct Messaging on Grapevine (yes yes, I know at this point everyone seems to be giving up on this xD) 2. V2 Update to Salaries - making it more useful with more data points 3. Launching verification and company private groups for 100 companies (we will keep doing this where we have enough people) 4. A better feed: We are hoping to show you less of posts you’ve already seen (A common complain with Grapevine) 5. A new approach to communities on Grapevine 6. A feature buff to Polls - making them even more insights rich 7. Better Link type posts - currently links on Grapevine are broken 8. Grapes V2: People will get grapes for creating ‘Chatty posts’ and ‘Deep Polls’ over and above the current definition of Grapes that is just focused on the number of likes you get 9. An Official Grapevine mixer (details soon!) As always, your feedback and spreading the good word about Grapevine is always appreciated

Hey Folks, Happy Friday! We wanted to share what we've been up to, so you know what to expect from the app in the next 1-2 months. 1. Bugs: We are hard at work trying to solve all the bugs that have slowly crept into Grapevine 😶 2. DMs: A polite way for users to take a few conversations deeper, and share referrals/resumes if they want to. A key worry for us would be to not make this spammy (like a few users pointed out on a recent post), while still staying helpful. 3. Experience: A smoother, more fluid app experience coming soon 4. Moderation: As posts and comments on Grapevine increase in number - there's also a small 0.1% of users that sometimes post abusive/offensive content. We're taking these issues more seriously. We read every 'report' that you share with us and take action appropriately 5. Grapevine on Web (I swear the first build is super exciting - I'm typing this post out on an early version of Grapevine Web 😉). This should allow people to browse Grapevine while in a boring meeting 😂 6. Salaries: We're building something exciting for better salary information 💰 7. Verification: You may have seen some users on Grapevine are now verified with a blue check. Currently only launched for employees of 3 companies, we'll launch this soon for more companies. This is how we'll raise the bar on trust within Grapevine. And no, we never plan to charge for blue ticks like some other platforms. It's just a darn image ☑️ Please do keep sending your awesome feedback at us, as always! Cheers 🍻

Grapevine is becoming more of a salary checker app now.

How did you come to know about it? What made you download it? And why are you still using it? Building anything in social is so hard. I want to know how they got the users.
