- rdoherty 10y agoI'm not sure if it does or doesn't, but the salary of $155k is normal in the SF area. Check out AngelList's salary tool: https://angel.co/salaries https://angel.co/salaries . Median salary for 'Developer' is about $120k. More for a backend developer. GlassDoor gives an average salary of $120k for the same area: https://www.glassdoor.com/Salaries/san-francisco-engineer-salary-SRCH_IL.0,13_IM759_KO14,22.htm https://www.glassdoor.com/Salaries/san-francisco-engineer-sa...
- bagels 10y agoCost of living is at least that much higher. Compare rent in San Diego (say, clairemont) vs Rent on the peninsula at equivalent house size. Easily 100% more.
