TEAM SIZE IS AN IMPORTANT FACTOR IN COMPENSATION.
Generally, people on larger teams make higher salaries. One-person
teams make around $69K median salary, whereas folks on 20+-person
teams have a $99K median salary. This could simply be explained
by the fact that, in order to have a large team, you need a larger
company and, as we’ve seen, the larger the company, the higher the
median salary.
However, team sizes of one don’t necessarily mean small companies.
One-person and small teams could simply mean that these
respondents are on small teams (or work by themselves) inside
large companies that don’t have many programmers or are not in
the Software industry.
It seems that it is better to work with more people, at least in terms
of salaries. As they say, a high tide raises all ships.
