>In the sports that doesn't pay too much (for most people working at Netflix)
Can most people who work at Netflix join another company for comparable pay? From what I've heard: No. Netflix often justifies their culture by pointing out they pay the highest. If you look at a thread below (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18316176) you'll see that $400K guaranteed as a senior developer is normal.
They also used to have a generous severance pay - well above industry average. That again was used to justify their policy: Hire the best, and give them a generous token of appreciation when we replace them. The claim was they don't want people to be worried about being fired, because whether they stay or leave, they'll get good money.
(Not sure if the severance package is good these days - my information is quite dated).
