First off, are you talking base salary or full package? There is no such thing as $200k base salary for 10 years exp in java. You'd have to specialize. $170k/y

First off, are you talking base salary or full package? There is no such thing as $200k base salary for 10 years exp in java. You'd have to specialize. $170k/y base salary for an eng manager is right where you want to be.
If your talking about base salary + bonus + annual sotcks/RSU's then you're way below market.
- charlesdm 10y agoNot to sound like an asshole, but there probably is. There probably are roles paying $500k a year doing exactly that. Not many, but they will be out there for certain people.
- donovanm 10y agoYeah I've seen positions offering 200k base salary for less then 10 years experience with java.
- colinbartlett 10y agoI think you vastly underestimate the disparity in salaries in the marketplace, even when comparing experience and job description. A hiring decision is often more about paying what's needed to in order to get the people they want, and less about what an expected or average salary is.
- matthewowen 10y agoThere's definitely 200k base for <10 years in Java. I'm happy to assure you of that because I've seen it.
