Yes as long as you're talking about total compensation; I've 7 years of experience in software engineering and my offers are in the 500-600k range of total compensation. Note this is equity value at grant; there is no appreciation (or depreciation) yet.

I recently took one of those offers from a FAANG, swapping a bunch of illiquid startup RSUs for liquid equity compensation.
