I work at US based company and I earn $900k. Remote work has been a boon to me.

Oh look, someone who makes more than 10 times what I make. All the talk about 10x developers turns out to be true after all.
That's your perspective. From my vantage point they are a 50x developer :)
They probably have 4-7 different roles with 3-6 different companies.
Out of curiosity, what do you do? Which tech stack? What does your employer do?
Two remote positions in two different time zones.
Do they know this? Are you a service provider?
For the folks incredulous at this number, senior staff level (IC7) and higher at top tier tech companies can get there, especially with stock appreciation. Stock/RSUs would comprise the majority of the compensation.
Those ranges exist but as far as I know they are unheard of unless physically located in the US and if remote, likely having worked in their offices prior.
Can you shed some light on how you got to that level of compensation?
Where do you reside?
