<h2>Other plots</h2>



<p>Here’s a few other things we investigated that didn’t turn up much to learn from in the themes above, but might have some value to some readers:<br></p>



<h3>Size of Company</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image"><img src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/lZI3RWs6ktfURdT8c_S3vVmFJ1Xib5j-h61ZvIiNo0YV8ju-qXpwEXVHXp03xFnInGs67_ttOLubAkpaJxlQyGiwo210jMruYAqVV6nuRGen_t3ugrciqSsC1k4WvSZyXAcnqV6m=s0" alt=""></figure>



<p>As you can see, this plot is all over the place. If anything, it speaks to the value of finding the right role rather than optimizing for a particular company. There is a slight trend of higher compensation at larger companies, but we can also see that it’s possible to make a healthy living across many levels.<br></p>



<h3>Public/Private Company</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image"><img src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/a39MSHpgVE3o5K_jpOa-7qhSjkQELda1zGFRKsGWYq9VRXpmZyi6x4I2XgQlPAJH23z4ZDLRID52R2jZX90gHzNLUaUZgATZ8Y0nnnbb_-y9rRIPTbbkjdNX-XUtOwAD2KaiiBWo=s0" alt=""></figure>



<p>For the purposes of this report,”public” refers to companies which are publicly traded, making the result fairly unsurprising – bigger companies go to IPO; bigger companies pay slightly more; so that result shows up here too.</p>



<h2>Top Five Airports</h2>



<p>Many practitioners of DevRel are high-mileage travelers, making their “home base” airport a quality-of-life factor. Respondents answered the question “<em>What is your closest major airport code?</em>” as follows:</p>



<ol><li>SFO</li><li>AUS and LHR (tie)</li><li>SEA and JFK (tie)</li><li>DEN, TXL and YYZ (tie)</li><li>PDX, MSP, BER (tie)&nbsp;</li></ol>



<p>Given its proximity to Silicon Valley and status as an international airport, it’s unsurprising that SFO is the most-flown-from airport. After that, the results quickly filter across a wide geographic area. <br></p>
