The easy way out is to stop restricting the supply so much, but then the income won't be as stellar, so the top dogs won't be as eager to allow that to happen
- noman-land 3y agoWhat kind of salaries would justify this hell? If you're earning $400k working 100 hour weeks, its the same as earning $160k working 40 hour weeks. That's a totally standard albeit high US software engineer salary.
- patrick451 3y agoNot really. How many software devs do you know who work only 40 hours per week and book at least 160K? How many devs are actually able to hold down 2.5 engineering jobs all pulling in that salary?
