  1. You are saying "Everyone", no it is not everyone. That is definitely not the case for my employer, Google. For Google and many other top tech companies, you can negotiate for higher salaries or bonuses and use your previous experience (or other things, like competing offers) as leverage. A new hire can be have a higher compensation than you (assuming hired at the same level), even if you have been at the company for several years. Or, of course, you can choose not to negotiate. The point is, it is not "everyone" that starts off at the bottom of the ladder. It would be pretty asinine if the norm was to have some 10 YOE engineer starts as entry level and has to work his way up to senior level upon getting hired at the company. If this is a foreign concept for the company you work for, then you work for a shitty company (even if they make awesome products). It is a completely different issue.
  2. OK with me if either 1) they are at the same level, 2) this 17.50$ increase is the result of a company wide increase, or 3) the salary increase is a result of the industry wide average salary. It took me ~ 2 years to get promoted (which maps to a ~80-90k USD yearly compensation increase) at my company, but there are a few exceptional new grads that get hired straight into that level, and I have no problem with that. Just because it took me X years to get to some level (not just level on paper, but level in terms of actual skill), doesn't mean it will take everyone the same amount of time. Simply put, some people are just better, they don't need the same amount of training / years of experience to get up to your skill level.
  3. Around 4k LOC in the last month working in Infrastructure (C++). We don't really do sprints at my company so there is no story points
  4. Another resource with easier questions https://codingbat.com/python EDIT: The prerequisite to answer the duplicate elements in an array question is to know how hash maps work (in other words, learn about data structures)
  5. Update: this was done (years ago) and it did indeed work.
  6. Yea that line was the only thing that I changed on my source code
  7. removing the static keyword? I cannot do that because this is an assignment and the assignment requires for this variable to use the static keyword
  8. class SavingsAccount { public: static double annualInterestRate; int accountNumber;//from 1000 to 4999 . . . }; . . . static void SavingsAccount::modifyInterestRate(double percent) { cout << "Monthly interest rate is to be changed to " << percent << "%" << endl; annualInterestRate = percent; } I have tried various things, such as changing the line in the function to SavingsAccount::annualInterestRate = percent;, or removing the static in the function implementation, the errors go from cannot declare member function, or undefined reference....really not sure how to modify the value of the variable through the function, help is appreciated
