> programmer salaries in the 100-150k range is the norm

This is the norm outside of Wall St as well, for anyone who has actual talent and/or experience and isn't a spineless pushover. For example, a truly talented sales engineer can easily make $250k/year + benefits and equity compensation.

> 60k is really seriously low

It was a 60k bonus.

actually $250k is kinda low. a ludicriously talented sales engineer (level 60 of course) can easily make a bajillion dollars a year if not more...
