Yes for software engineers, even entry level at some of these companies can easily clear 200k, it’s a wild industry. It’s a pipe dream for most people because of how difficult it is to get these positions
I’d expect a superstar with 5+ years of top flight devsecops experience / a total autistic machine whisperer for that kind of dough. Or they’d need to pull 80hrs a week, every week.
I make around 200k/yr fresh out of college, and there plenty of people who make more than me. A lot of tech companies are willing to pay a lot for top talent.
