I'm curious what those people are working on.
As a former bulge bracket investment bank software developer, I certainly did not make anywhere close to insane amounts of money. As a "vice president" 10+yoe senior SWE equivalent my TC was probably a tad bit higher than the higher end of a FAANG junior SWE TC. This is in NYC. Ditto for my colleagues.
The only kind of SWE I can see making great money at a bank are those working in the algo trading and maybe the quant space, but those are highly niche roles.
