- angersock 12y ago60k starting salary as a coder? Where can I apply?
- yebyen 12y agoAmen, brother! (Or did I just hear a great big woosh blowing past my head?)
- yebyen 12y agoOh man oh man...
- theg2 12y agoThis is probably a decade old based on the source code.
- tormeh 12y agoCrunch time all year round baby!
- Impossible 12y agoThe salary numbers are all tongue in cheek, although its pretty common for entry level game industry programmers to make $60K or less. For comparison the producer makes $100K, which is way above the average producer salary (~$75K) and almost twice entry level producer salary.
- vonmoltke 12y agoYou have to take into account where the game industry jobs are, too. I work across the highway from id, and around here I wouldn't be shocked to find out entry level programmers make $60k/year. It's low, but not unreasonable considering the glut of people who seem to want in to the industry.
