Big banks easily pay 200-300k
- gamblor956 3y agoSure, for niche roles, but not for web developers or app developers. If you want to make 200k+ at a big bank, it's because you have specialized programming experience/skills.
- randomopining 3y agoNo I believe for all standard app engineers in HCOL locations like NYC metro and SF metro. Top banks like GS I think are even a bit more. But WF etc are 200k-280k, confirmed.
- gamblor956 3y agoYou are talking about niche positions. They aren't paying their front-end or developers 200k+. I do know a number of bank developers making 300k+. They work on the boring, unsexy backend stuff that makes the bank run. Each of them provides the equivalent value of about 100 front-end developers.
- randomopining 3y agoHmm ok. Because I know first hand that senior developers can get 220-300k easy. These aren't even owners or super niche. Just ~10yoe, and working on jira tickets nothinig wild.
- pdimitar 3y agoWhat do they need to pay such salaries?
- randomopining 3y agoNot sure but I guess because that is the going rate now for a Senior Dev in a HCOL area like NYC.
