So 140k is just OK - what is good then? What is your base salary and bonus expectation? For example if I talk to a Netflix engineer and promise work-life balance (no weekend, 7 hr/day average vs 12 hr), I still need to go 180k+ with 2k bonus? http://www.glassdoor.com/Salary/Netflix-Salaries-E11891.htm http://www.glassdoor.com/Salary/Netflix-Salaries-E11891.htm How about Google? 145k+ with 60k bonus? http://www.glassdoor.com/Salary/Google-Salaries-E9079.htm http://www.glassdoor.com/Salary/Google-Salaries-E9079.htm

Glassdoor salaries are out of date, munging together years of comp and reporting them all as current. $160 to 180k including bonus/equity, and you're finally getting into competitive territory for poaching talent. You won't be best in class but you'll be better than average. If you hired workers like you shopped for housing, getting rid of unrealistic expectations based on prices from years past, you'd find them much easier to recruit.
