>my take home is quite a bit over 170.
I hate you so much. I have been clawing and scratching my way to $100k/yr for over 20 years and I am still nowhere near it. I do more work than my peers, my peers come to me when they need a solution designed or created, and I am the go-to guy when someone has a technical question of any kind. I work for a company you are all familiar with, no matter where you are in the world.
I am getting fucked. Hard.
- mzz80 9y agoAre you in the Silicon Valley or Seattle? Location matters when you're talking about compensation numbers. If you're on a visa it also seems like your compensation could be less due to negotiation power. However, it sounds like you're not in the Silicon Valley since salaries for new grads start at above 100k/yr. It sounds like a lot, but it's really not when you factor in the cost of living.
