Where outside the Valley (and maybe NYC) where new grads are routinely getting total comp packages significantly greater than $140k? All the names you dropped in your other post are top companies that the typical new grad has very little chance of getting in to.

Not OP, but I live in Boston and make a little north of that. Not Google/FB/etc. TBH, I'm as close to a "typical new grad" as you can get IMO.
