Are you a generalist or a specialist? Think of the place you work at as your cricket team. An all-rounder is known as generalist and a spinner is known as specialist in the corporate world. Do they get paid the same? Depends on who you ask. If you ask a consulting firm or an agency, specialists in their team is paid about 5 times more than the average skilled generalist. If you'd ask an internet product company, generalists typically get paid equal or if not 10% more than the specialists on their teams. Why does this matter? Every org prioritizes a particular function/department they cannot compromise on. When the org's reputation is dependent on non-replicable processes, a specialist on their team who delivers such work is paid more while the operations team is paid on the market levels. On July 1st, I'm hosting 20 aspirants to deepdive on this and many other topics. Come join us, linked below!
