I have a friend in NYC who's two years out of school and seems to be close to this as an application security engineer at a biotech company in manhattan. Personally, I hate security work like pentesting etc, its the worst parts of DevOps with the most business risk possible duct-taped to it.
Granted, he makes more than I do as a product eng / core dev.
For reference, I don't know exact numbers but he didn't seem too phased paying $3400/mo. for an apt in midtown. Assuming this is maybe 1/3 of his post-tax take-home. For privacy reasons can't go into too much more detail.
