Is that $250k-$350k exclusively in hyperinflated areas of the country? What would a FAANG developer be making in Miami, or Iowa?
- mountainofdeath 7y agoI've heard near-FANG companies pay roughly 75% of what the expected value in Silicon Valley would be in places like Denver or Austin. A deep discount for sure but with the added benefit of far lower cost-of-living and tax burden. Facebook and Google are unique in that the majority of their engineers are in high cost-of-living areas, so they pay the same amount for the relatively small numbers of engineers working outside of the major offices.
