While the sentiments might be popular, I think this is fake. There are only a few trillion dollar companies, and none of them are offering 250k entry level SWE (highest I see is 180, but I haven't checked thorougly)

E: This comment was made under the false assumption that the original poster was entry level. Since it's implied they aren't, it could be very real.

The person on Reddit referenced how things were at their previous job, so probably not entry level

Ah, my mistake. If it isn't entry level this is realistic. I'll edit my comment

Nowhere in the post or commments does he say he’s entry level — maybe I missed it. It’s also not his first job.

I will also add that there are tech companies that offer total comp of $250k+ for entry level positions. Are your figures just salary or are they total comp?

Where did "entry level SWE" come from? The poster said they've been with this company for one year, not that this is their first year in the industry.

They never said entry level SWE, they said it was more than they’d made before

Looks like a Google L4, Microsoft 62, Meta E4, and Apple ICT3 all come in at just a little above and below 250k
