 The talent wars are alive and well in the tech industry, according to salary research site Paysa. And there's one company willing to go to the nines to win them: Netflix. Paysa recently looked at hiring, staying, and poaching trends for a number of top tech companies and discovered that Netflix spent more than 10 times the others to acquire new talent from places like LinkedIn, Facebook, and PayPal. The research firm came up with these stats as part of a bigger project that analyzed salary trends of over 31,000 employment transitions. While Netflix was, by far, offering the biggest increases, it wasn't the only one willing to pay big. Here are the top 10 tech companies that pay the most when poaching employees, according to Paysa: SEE ALSO: The alarming inside story of a failed Google acquisition, and an employee who was hospitalized No. 1: Netflix was willing to give employees it lured away from other tech companies a median raise of 167%.

Obviously, such increases in salary imply big promotions as well as more cash and less stock. Senior software engineers at Netflix average $210,244 in base salary compared to $166,403 at Facebook. But with stock and other benefits, Facebook actually pays slightly more in total compensation.  Source: Glassdoor
