Well in tech you can actually be an expert IC with in demand skills that match the comp. This is vs some "strategy" head or "chief of staff" which are glorified admins that are often created when execs are empire building.
The question to ask is "am I building the product that is being sold, and is the value I add a 10x in terms of revenue?"
I hesitate to give a comp number as I've never been inside FAANG, but more inside large corp. But anything over $500k you definitely are always being looked at there.
