    It says it's remote though, so doesn't seem too bad?

      Right in most southern states in rural areas that would be pretty good and you could enjoy fresh air and nature while working from your back porch and scanning a few acres of land and wildlife, sipping on sweet tea.

  It's a non profit. You're probably not choosing to work for the IA for high compensation.

    The undertone was intended to be: that's an insane amount of money, something one with quadruple that amount of experience would maybe earn in a for-profit organisation, but I guess your reaction further proves it's different where you're from

      It's not high for bay area software jobs; there are new grads who were paid more than that 10 years ago and I assume new grad wages have gone up since. Of course cost of living (particularly rent) and taxes are high there too, but if you don't blow it all on renting a higher-end place or luxuries you can still save a lot. For context someone making less than $105k is classified as "low income" in San Francisco. https://www.sfgate.com/local/article/under-100k-low-income-san-francisco-18168899.php https://www.sfgate.com/local/article/under-100k-low-income-s...

      The way you worded it was confusing to read, I thought it was a complaint about "only 100k". Thanks for clarifying your intent.

      The IA is located in the Inner Richmond, which is a ~ medium income area of SF. Rent alone is ~ $4K, or ~ $60K of your income before taxes.

        They might be there, but the position was remote-friendly.

      To put the reaction into context, the individual low income threshold in that area is 105k USD [0]. [0] https://www.hcd.ca.gov/sites/default/files/docs/grants-and-funding/income-limits-2023.pdf https://www.hcd.ca.gov/sites/default/files/docs/grants-and-f...
