Are you a senior or staff software engineer for a multinational tech company in the Bay Area or NYC?
$450k is typical in that case.
Seniors are usually pulling around $200k in NYC, plus stock worth around $100k. Still crazy high, but not nearly $450k unless they've been there for a very long time, and the high CoL makes it worth about half of that.
Staff engineers, as in those who write 4 lines of code a year, are closer to $450k
Staff engineers get paid the big bucks to spend all day in meetings so the rest of us don't have to.
Worth it.
Hello, I'd like to apply to be staff engineer, I will even accept a lower salary if I can call the client/user a dumbass for contradicting themselves during the meeting
New grads at Google make over $200k in NYC...
Yeah, that's net including ~$100k of stock distributed over 4 years. The base starting is around $130k for a low level SWE. As the years to by, the base salary goes up to a little over $200k for seniors, but the stock refreshes aren't usually as large as the initial.
Of course, it also depends on how the company is doing as a whole. Lately Googs has been struggling and laying off people.
