My senior team members and peers earn in the range of $120k - $140k in Toronto. I earn quite a bit more, having management experience helps to break past those ranges. I hear Amazon Toronto is paying up to $160k for IC's.

- ryanobjc 9y agoThe key part being "up to" and "senior team members" All the numbers you quoted are for mid tier in SF. Yes cost of living is higher here, but the salary taps out quite a bit lower. Three of my colleagues own houses in San Francisco. Multiple of others own homes in Oakland or San Mateo. None of us are very special people, in other words just normal ICs and people who work hard, but not endlessly. To work as a Senior Dev in Toronto means topping out at 160k. To work as a senior dev here in SF means starting at 210k and only going up from there. That's more than cost of living differences can cover.
