Do you have sources for this information? Is 200k median salary, or an outlier for the top senior engineer there?

  The top senior engineer at Google, Facebook, and LinkedIn is not making $200k. More than 10 years ago, my in-the-door offer as one member of a team of 5-6 senior developers at an east coast tech firm was higher than $200k.

    > The top senior engineer at Google, Facebook, and LinkedIn is not making $200k. Fair point. The Top engineer at each of those companies is making more than $200k. Edited for clarity.

      What he meant is that they are making far more than $200k, which makes his next sentence illustrative as an example.

        I understood what he was saying, and I concurred to his statement: that top engineers at Google et al, are making more than $200k

          Not only are they making more than 200k, they are making WAY more than 200k.

  It's not median - it's maybe median if you select only for senior-level engineers, most of our industry leans quite young. The "outlier for top engineers" at the above companies are in the $500k+ range. I'm being entirely serious.
