Don’t forget that tech jobs at real tech companies exist outside of Silicon Valley.

If you work for a tech company in the Midwest or the South, $75k is a perfectly reasonable junior salary.

I work for a Fortune 100 in one of the 20 biggest metros in the US, $75k is a standard salary for juniors/associates getting an offer right out of college. Some may get a little more, some get less, I haven't met any who got $100k or more right out of school. None of them I've talked to came from a top-tier CS school.
