In all seriousness, that is not a typical salary for the vast majority of people in the Bay Area. Not everyone is a software developer working for a company with money to burn.

- merkleee 10y agoAnyone who can get the title "senior" from multiple major tech employers can get that salary if they are competent at negotiating. That is where the market is in 2017. At top employers you can tack on another $100k in stock/bonus.
- binarysolo 10y agoThat's a humblebrag, don't get baited. :P Yes you can get 160k 2 years out of school if you're a top student and/or have awesome GitHub/sideprojects and performed well at the company to own something, move up the chain, or are a cleverer bear than your average.
