- lostmsu 5y agoSenior offers from Facebook in Seattle are nearing $500k/y total comp.
- madars 5y agoBut that doesn't get you to millions (plural, post-tax) in 4 years...
- onlyrealcuzzo 5y agoDepending on your spending and your return on investments, it easily could have in the last 4 years... House prices (on 5:1 leverage) are up >100% THIS YEAR. The S&P is up ~30%. You need a ~20% return saving ~$300k per year to get >$2M in 4 years. This wasn't terribly difficult to get in the last 4 years. Who knows what the future will bring.
- MikeTheRocker 5y agoAs an example, IC5 engineers (~5+ years of experience) can realistically earn $350-450k USD per year at Meta these days. Disclaimer: I work at Meta
- onlyrealcuzzo 5y agoYou could also do this at IC4 / L4 at Google - depending on how good your initial grant was. Appreciation has been high.
- sarma912 5y agoI'm an L6 at Amazon and I'm not sure if millions are possible in 4 years, but the replies are right in that you get close to a million. RSUs, investing back into the socket market etc etc gets you there.
