Silicon Valley’s engineering salaries are finally getting fair. Thank Facebook
This article is an embarrassment.  He does not offer any evidence at all for his claim that the no-poaching agreement drove down programmers' salaries. It may have been anticompetitive enough for the participants to get sued, but how much did it actually decrease salaries?  10%? 1%? 0%?  If this guy knows the answer, he doesn't tell us.<p>And I know for a fact that Facebook is not the only reason programmers' salaries are rising.  There are a huge number of new startups all competing for the best people.
