Ya generally speaking a new grad programmer is doing great if he/she makes $50k/yr. Engineers that'd get $300k comp offers from big5 tech here would make $80k--$150k, provided you go to a web/mobile company. If you go to an older industry you will make less.

Who gets $300k comp offers? Principal engineers?

  You can hit $300K (All-in) as a senior engineer at Google. Various finance firms on the east coast can also send recruiting e-mails, touting their >400K comp. I think the key to that one is having work experience in an investment bank, as well as at AMAPGOFA.
