Rora helps top AI researchers and professionals negotiate their pay -- often as they transition from academia into industry. Moving into tech is a huge transition for many PhDs and post-docs -- the pay is much more significant and the terms of employment are often quite different. In the past 5 years, the Rora team has helped over 1000 STEM professionals negotiate more than $10M in additional earnings from companies like DeepMind, OpenAI, Google Brain, and Anthropic -- and advocate for better roles, more alignment with their managers, and more flexible work.
