Thank you, I appreciate it! A few quick questions:

1. How are benefits/compensation? Competitive?

2. Are there a lot of international remote employees at SongTradr? Bandcamp has a lot of people around the globe and we'd love to know if SongTradr is likely to make offers internationally or if it'll just be near offices.

3. Do you like working there?

1. Compensation is what I would call mid-tier competitive for each region. You won't get an SFO salary in Spain. You'll get more at FAANG or a more tech-focused startup, but I left a FAANG job to come here.

2. Lots of international employees. No exec-level requirements of working from an office, but some teams may have their own rules.

3. It's middle of the pack, but that's mainly because I get stuck doing jobs I hate because I'm the only one with the experience, and we've got a client breathing down our neck. it's the burden of being the Sr Dev, but eventually, I'll have trained my team well enough that I can do a bit of real innovation... until then, I really believe we're enabling artists to make a better living by opening up a market (sync) that has generally been reserved for artists that are already living comfortably.

Thank you for the response! That’s really helpful, makes it feel a little less vague & murky.

> I feel like Bandcamp 100% fits better with SongTradr than Epic.

FWIW, at least some ("one"?) musicians are cautiously optimistic about this:

Well, that doesn't take a lot, because Epic isn't so much a company as a pile of money which doesn't know what to do with itself.

Hadn't heard of SongTradr but I'd agree. Huge opportunity for underground musicians to get their music licensed for commercial stuff.
