It's totally overrated. There are new grad CS majors literally everywhere in the world. Only in San Francisco can they demand $130k [1] right out of school, and get it.
That's not even greedy...at $3500 a month for the median one-bedroom apartment, even the lowliest employee should be demanding $140k for a job here.
[1] This is not a brown number. It's a salary that I know real, non-exceptional new-grad engineers are getting, in San Francisco, today.
- prostoalex 11y agoFrom rational standpoint, it would make sense for a good software engineer to move to SV to hedge their career in case things don't work out as planned with the employer. A laid off software engineer will probably have simpler time finding the next gig in SF than Tulsa.
