Based on the most helpful WSO content, here’s a breakdown of developer tier rankings in the context of software engineering (SWE):
Tier 1 (Top Tier)
Tier 2 (High Tier)
Tier 3 (Mid Tier)
This ranking reflects prestige and desirability within the SWE space, often based on compensation, work culture, and reputation in the industry. Let me know if you’re looking for more specifics!

If I see another tier/ranking post on the RE forum I’m going to throw up.
All the SBs I have saved up are being used for MS for these kinds of threads
Why is this bad?
It doesn't make a ton of sense for a national ranking on developers because development is a local business. There are institutional developers in my state that you have likely never heard of, but they beat out big name players like Tishman/Related etc...Also, it is great to have Tishman on your resume, but real estate development has traditionally not cared about pedigree, but work experience.
Just stop it
Yeah brah lets these prestigious development shops
