So are $300,000 Google salaries a myth, or Triplebyte doesn't place with FAANG?

[echevil]

The base salary portion would not be too different

Total comp is in that range at Google, not salary.

The above data is only of engineers hired using TripleByte platform. I saw only a handful of open positions with Apple. The data is based on the type of companies uses the platform to hire which probably doesn't involve big paying companies such as Googles, FB, Uber etc

[davidjnelson]

These companies have massive hiring pipelines already.

FAANGs all issue RSUs and cash bonuses but if you are a senior engineer doing good work you should expect your RSUs to match your salary in year 2-3 and exceed your base salary in years 3-4.

If you take their numbers that works out to $350-$400k.

This is base salary, a large portion of Google compensation is GSU.

A director at Google wouldn't be making much more than $200k in base salary, but their total comp can easily exceed $1M if you count stocks.
