if faamng salary is supposedly that high, that's like a shocker, and probably massive hyperbole, unless something bizarre happened over the last 5 years. that said, total comp could be pretty high like that quite plausibly.

It's not hyperbole, although prior to 2022, getting $400k total compensation as a senior meant working at a handful of companies, even ones like Google and Microsoft weren't paying out that much unless it was through stock appreciation.

total comp is possible, but salary? that's weird

i expect this to be total comp, weighted towards RSUs; with a 1 year vest; that employees diversify rapidly.
