> Entry level Web Developers are getting $200K per year working in FAANG or Big Tec What inflated most in the past 3 years is the ego of engineers. :-) On blind and job-seeking forums/groups, people incessantly flaunted their packages: $500K with 3-year experience. > $1M for an L7 applied scientists, getting promoted to staff engineer 3 years after graduating, and etc. I think it all started after 2020.03. The market dipped, and then bounced back, and there was a talent war, thanks to an influx of cheap capital. I remember that my Amazon friends were very happy for a $600K package for their L7 positions, but all of sudden that number seemed normal after the great package inflation since 2020.
