> The candidates who were offered $120,000 was reporting directly to the VP of his research group

The candidates or the candidate? It seems like this candidate is easily identifiable... How many masters' grads from Stanford (145 responses) was offered 120,000 and reports to the VP of his research group?

This makes me wonder: How taboo is it to talk about your offers/comp details? When I get offers, I'm told to keep them confidential, but everyone knows that the numbers are openly discussed between friends.



This is a real problem. There were TWO of us at Drexel who interned one summer at Google. They published salary details BY EMPLOYER! I was livid when a professor made a snarky remark about how my internship paid better than his career. I gave the dean quite an earful over that.
