People with less knowledge earning more

Hi,

I came across few friends and also one person who used to report directly to me that they got 24 LPA offer. They have less yrs of experience then me and also knowledge.

I am getting same 24 LPA (with 1% equity). Do you guys think this should be red flag me to switch to some better paying jobs?

I have 9+ yrs of experience and working as engineering manager(Node, Python, PHP) while they are senior devs(Android, PHP,Frontend) with approx 5-6 yrs of experience.

Skill/talent/knowledge doesn't mean you will end up making more money. That being said you are underpaid for your YOE and should try to switch

May I pls ask what's the average salary for a C++ dev with similar years of experience? Not in FAANG, but in the other companies ?

Money is directly proportional to one's ability to market/sell the product/himself and not for how long one has stayed in the market. :)

I've a friend ~25 lpa, 3yoe non tech role in tech industry. Alot of it depends on luck also if you're able to get into high paying companies.

If you feel need to make more money should try and find better paying company, tech companies seems to be picking up hiring again.
