Glad to see salaries are going up for new grads (at least for Stanford grads with ludicrous offers from Google and Facebook). Pushing salaries up across the industry can only be a good thing for pretty much everybody here.
Definitely a refreshing change from the GlassDoor surveys we keep seeing here telling people to hold on tight to that $70k salary you deserve from your 7-10 years of experience.
All that's missing now is the obligitory dismissive comment from that DC government contractor guy who thinks we're all really making $30k/year and lying about it (and says as much on every single discussion about salary that comes through this site).
- caw 14y agoI've held a perception that Stanford students have ludicrous offers from Bay Area companies, and I definitely expected the average to be higher due to cost of living. However, these numbers really are similar to Georgia Tech's CS numbers for 2012, and I know there's a lot of east coast companies that pull GT graduates. http://www.adors.gatech.edu/commencement/salary_report_result.cfm?college=TOTAL&level=1&surveyid=62&Submit=Submit http://www.adors.gatech.edu/commencement/salary_report_resul... The College of Computing has better numbers (including relocation and stock option numbers), but that link is the rollup for the school. I can't find the CoC specific ones.
