> At those levels you make around 500k$/year as an engineer (a lot of times more). ...no? I've not been acquainted with anyone at any of those companies making more than $330k who isn't a senior manager. Rank-and-file devs (who aren't getting laid off left and right) are high-200s. And to return to the original point, it's not that you take home more cash elsewhere, obviously that isn't true. it's that what cash you have left goes further than it does in SV. The number you see on a job listing in middle america looks a lot lower than it actually is. |

That is the starting package for a senior engineer at Meta. Most of them are in their mid-20s. Other FAANGs have similar pay.
Anyone that started more than 2 years ago also includes a crazy amount of stock growth as part of the package.
