Compensation is complicated. We can help.

We're currently taking a break from providing compensation reviews for employees at VC-backed companies to focus on other projects. But, you'll find many resources on this page.

Our Story

We're making comp fair, one review at a time

Deva Hazarika and Emily Kramer launched Help Wanted Project spring of 2020 during COVID-19 to help people navigate the job search process for free. We later launched free compensation reviews to help people understand offers and make the right choice for their career. In August 2021 we took a hiatus and now just share resources—we'll be back when we gives talks and event to help participants.

Compensation is broken. It's confusing. It's often unfair. We want to do our part to fix this.
