If you're living in the Bay Area and are competent enough to be hired by a big tech company you can absolutely command a 100k+ salary pretty much regardless of seniority. There are Google interns getting paid almost 90k (~7500 monthly.)

Furthermore, big tech companies pay a "we're no longer cool" tax of about $25k higher than going market rates. The vast majority of graduates are not earning $100k.
