Frequently Asked Questions

Why doesn't Glassdoor work well for Pakistan?

Glassdoor is built around the US market. Pakistani companies are sparsely covered, and the salary data that does exist is often outdated, self-reported without verification, or reflects a handful of data points. The interface also requires account creation before showing any numbers.

Why doesn't Levels.fyi work well for Pakistan?

Levels.fyi focuses heavily on US big tech and total comp in USD — particularly stock compensation. For engineers in Pakistan earning PKR salaries at local IT firms, the data model doesn't map well. Coverage for Pakistani companies is minimal.

How does Takhleeq verify submissions?

Every salary submission is reviewed by a human before it's published. We look for consistency with the stated company, role, and experience level, and reject submissions that appear fabricated or inconsistent with market data.

Is Takhleeq free to use?

The first three salary entries on any company or role page are free to view. Full access requires submitting your own verified salary data — which keeps the database accurate and reciprocal.

How is data anonymised?

Submissions are never shown with identifying information. When a segment has fewer than 3 data points, it is suppressed entirely to protect individual privacy.
