They got a job at FAANG and stuck around.
- muzani 8y agoYeah I think part of the prerequisite is that they either contribute more than 300k of wealth or are plausibly a threat that can statistically do more than 300k in damage.
- julienreszka 8y agoThe threat is more likely. "Keep your friends close but your enemies closer"
- cimmanom 8y agoOr at a bank.
- richardknop 8y agoBanks don't pay that well.
- cimmanom 8y agoBy banks I mean Wall St. firms in NY, not consumer banking operations. And of course not for junior roles. I've received recruiter emails a handful of times offering $300k or $400k salaries at said banks.
- richardknop 8y agoI receive such emails too. The question is how many of those roles actually exist for software engineers (and how often recruiters just write a big amount in the email to get your attention - remember most of these emails are automatically generated), I'd say there's much less of these good roles in Wall St. firms compared to tech.
- codingslave 8y agoYeah this is my conclusion. Theres probably only a few teams of engineers at every bank that make this.
- sethammons 8y agoThe stick around bit is interesting. More and more folks jump ship every 1-2 years. I wonder if these folks make $300k+.
