- lucozade 10y agoI would have thought that interns being paid 80k is more of a sign than product managers being paid more than engineers.
- frozenport 10y agoYou are wrong. Interns are paid 75% of starting salary and don't work more than a few months. Many of these people are a year away from entering the labor force. With housing costs it's hard to take home more than a few k.
- lucozade 10y agoFair enough. So it's the 105k graddie salary that's the bubble signifier rather than the intern salary per se. Makes sense.

- superuser2 10y agoIt actually doesn't. New grads at Google were getting ~$85k in 2006. By the CPI, that's ~$101k now. If "graddie" salaries were any less than that, wages would have actually decreased.
- frozenport 10y agoWhere I work, engineers make the product. I'm noy sure what the other people do. I welcome the techno meritocracy.
