Meh, it's no Google L6. I saw today that salary has risen to 9 million
John Robinson
fucking kek. enjoy living in a cardboard box.
Brayden Garcia
How long til the stocks vest
Dominic Cruz
depends on how old you are. if you're 22 it's good, if you're 28 it's missing a 0.
Lincoln Adams
Am I actually supposed to be making those figures right now or soon? I'm 21 and making 50k/yr in software dev. Why would they be willing to pay so fucking much when its not a quarter as hard as being a doctor or some shit?
Benjamin Kelly
You can get 200k TC as a new grad from any of the FAANG in the bay area.
Cameron Brooks
location is very important to consider when looking at salaries.
$185k is not a joke, but it's also not a lot considering the position is in the bay area.
Henry Lee
>As a new grad
Please dont be memeing me I'm going to look into this
Matthew Gomez
That's middle class money in the bay area.
Isaac Moore
>tfw 23 and only making 120k
Not gonna make it, am I ?
Aiden Wood
>23
>$70k in Denver
>more than enough to live comfortably and still max out a Roth IRA each year
Thank god I don’t live on the worst coast where a studio apartment surrounded by shitskins is $150k
Luis Gutierrez
What's your rent?
Ian Bailey
$600 for a bedroom and bathroom in a 4-bedroom house. Two roommates.
Apartments would be slightly cheaper but fuck apartments.
Lucas Richardson
Gavin Price
>Living with other people
Absolutely 3rd world
Caleb Moore
come to bay area, join faang, then transfer to denver team in a year or 2, and lock in that bay area salary user
Colton Evans
Is this from Python? C#? What are you working with?
Daniel Bennett
>room mates
DROPPED
Leo Wood
brainlet in college here who cant choose a major what do I choose if I just want to make money like a soulless cretin
i have a handfull of business college classes will I make it as an accountant or should I switch to some techie shit
Adrian Davis
computer science, but only you are top 10%
Bentley Jones
Everything in LA is over inflated because a 1 bedroom apartment not in the ghetto costs 4000 dollars a month
Colton Ross
forgot to mention im going into my junior year btw
Evan Hill
Pretty good if you use that signing bonus for a pimped out sprinter van and live in the parking lot at work. 185 in the bay area is roughly equivalent to 50 in baton rouge.
Daniel Stewart
How come the salary is so high when it comes to tech?
I only get 100,000 USD. Texas. As full stack nodejs developer. 2 years experience. I am so jealous.
Josiah King
then study up for the coding interview, ace it, and get the 200k leetcode.com
Connor Sanchez
nice
you work in any of the big 4?
Benjamin Lee
yes, my w2 will show around 350k this year
Elijah Howard
I make 140k + stock in Texas. Bay area salaries are crazy.
Tyler Kelly
WTF? I only make 75,000 a year. Ruby on rails developer. Straight out of college though.
Houston.
Jacob Rivera
how much from that goes to taxes?
50%?
Dylan Smith
I max out my Roth IRA, max out my 401k, max out my after tax 401k, and deposited 70k USD in my after tax brokerage account last year. Overall net worth increase of 150k USD lasy year. The delusions you flyoverfags have over Bay Area costs are hilarious.
Luis Gonzalez
40% if no 401k contribution, did you know you can max out social security tax?
Lucas Rogers
i'm from yuropoor
Adam Turner
What about your HSA?
Brody King
Forgot about that. My employer gives me a free $1000 in it every year, so I only need to add around $2000.
Brody Howard
Does N stand for Nintendo?
Kayden Ortiz
Did you get a job before you moved there or did you move first and get job after?
I've heard from a coworker they got flown over to do an in-person interview with Amazon(he didn't get it)
Gabriel Turner
I was already there for college (Stanford), got a job offer before graduating.
Andrew Morris
Post your rent and salary and years experience please, I've been here two years and it's just too expensive
Anthony Barnes
$2200 a month for a 1 bedroom apartment a 8 minute bike ride from the office.
Salary is a meaningless number. I don't live paycheck to paycheck. My w2 income last year was 260k USD, with 3 years of experience.
Aaron Cruz
>mfw average tech salary out of college is ~20k here
Tyler Jones
>260k USD, with 3 years of experience.
That's ridiculously high. You got a PhD or some shit? Wtf are you doing?
Adrian Scott
No that's standard. I write Javascript apps.
Chase James
faangs start new grad at 200k now, if he is a superstar he could hit 300k and above
Daniel Nguyen
It is not you fucking liar, you realize people on this thread have access to indeed/Glassdoor/etc?
Luke Rogers
itt: people thinking that OPs salary is crazy when 95% of it will go housing, taxes and living.
Oliver Thompson
Maybe Netflix does but that's because you get no benefits
Henry Sullivan
>not living in a van and using mcdonalds wifi and public charging stations
never gonna make it
Jack Turner
>indeed/Glassdoor
HAHAHAHAHA, stay poor, read this and weep levels.fyi
Austin Turner
takes 2 years to go from l3 to l4 at goog, and you can definitely make 300k+ at l4
Landon Myers
At least you're not 33 making 40k
Brandon Hall

Thomas Murphy

t. incoming cs freshman
Luke Rodriguez
freedom
Leo Morris
they will teach them in cs 101 and 201 classes
Julian Green
so how do i get a headstart for that 200k starting total compensation?
Asher Wilson
They need it to stay afloat from all the jewishness.
Even then, most end up in debt forever.
Jaxon Perry
get internships
Liam Roberts
I dk if you're joking, but netflix
Adam Ortiz
Boy genius making 99k in LA @ 22, ama
William Howard
itt: a bunch of poorfag systems admins roleplaying as people with high salaries
Asher Howard

Christopher Bell
>$70k in Denver
What the fuck, I make $105k + 15k in bonuses and I'm the same age as you, I would honestly get out of where you are working
70k doesn't sound livable for Denver, but I live in Boulder
Ayden Clark
live with my also-in-tech gf
1bedroom
Caleb Barnes
i graduated with an IT degree, but have spent the past year doing data science at my internship. do i have a chance at a sweet starting salary?
Isaiah Ortiz
were u an average student? know how to code before uni?
Jacob Jenkins
Ha, smalltime.
I'm 24 and I earn less than $12,000 a year. I live in the southwest US, and the only outside support I get is living in an extra room in my parent's house.
I save the vast majority of what I earn but jesus christ, I can't even imagine earning $50,000 a year, let alone fucking 180k. It's just so far outside of what I've ever experienced, I literally cannot fathom what it's like.
Ryder Williams
nigga what. interns make more than u
Jose Turner
1. decent student but not anything crazy
2. just barely; some basic python
advice would be to apply to lots of jobs (I did 60+) and build a portfolio instead of getting good grades
classes/grades are a waste when you can just practice tons on leetcode & do stupid well on whiteboard interviews
Ryder Lewis
Benefits of being a smalltime youtuber. The money sucks but I don't do well with bosses and supervisors so, eh
Joseph Gomez
>what it's like.
feels good man
Carter Morales
1.8mil in 28? Damn...
Samuel Harris
What do you do?
Xavier Hughes
Fag
Caleb Wright
freedom
Hunter Gonzalez
What the fuck? Why does most people make 200k~800k here?
Levi Russell
Impossible to end up in debt when you earn 400k a year
Nathaniel Watson
I only make 135k a year as Java Spring developer. I live in New York City. My life still sucks. I cannot afford a house. I can only afford a car. Still rent.
Job is comfy though.
Camden Thompson
$200k straight ouut of school? Wouldn't they be paying like $500k in Bay Area then? Damn son.
Nathaniel Adams
>22
>7 yrs of experience
Luke Perry
he's talking about bay area total comp.
Isaiah Myers
because we took the stem pill
Christian Smith
Yeah. Good thing i took STEM. My brother went to liberal art degree ans now he is homeless living with my mom. I give him some money monthly to help pay the bills.
My wage sucks though. Only 90k, i worked overtime for 1 hour everyday. I use mostly Sails and ReactJS framework at work. I hope by the time i am 29 years old i will be making 120k a year. I just recently graduate 7 months ago
Jonathan Myers
>$120k remote job in a lcol area w/ no state tax
>take home pay is higher than if I made $200k and had to pay CA tax and rent
plus I can actually afford to buy a house here if I want
living the dream boys. Why haven't you taken the remote pill yet?
Levi Mitchell
You live in NYC and own a car? Why?
Jayden Howard
200k is entry level. With 5 years of experience you're looking at 300-400k.
Jonathan Smith
I want to have a car because that is the place i can get laid to be honest. My apartments sucks. I use uber for work mostly though.
Elijah Hughes
I don't have 5 years experience, though.
Ryan Cook
Who /FIRE/ here? I've got 10 years left at current savings rate until I can retire.
Ethan King
What does total comp mean? Does the stocks count towards total comp? You don't get stock shares every year do you?
Aiden Cook
At google if you are any good you can ramp to 300k within 2 years. 400k is only a few more years after that.
Liam Wright
How much do you intend to retire with?
Ryan Collins
The number you report as income to the government for tax purposes.
Dominic Peterson
typically the stock you see discussed on teamblind is 4 year vest. so tc = base + bonus + stock/4
some people adds signon/4 to the tc, some don't
Blake Russell
people actually fuck in cars?
t. 18yo virgin
Colton Nguyen
yee. prob just /fi/ for me though.
vtsax all the way. simple path
James Ramirez
Total comp is a lie sf-area programmers tell to make their e-peens look better.
If you're including stock appreciation of $GOOG as part of your income, then I my "total comp" should include the stocks in google I bought that are appreciating in my brokerage account.
Connor Bell
How much can you be saving every year living in Bay Area with 200k salary?
Asher Harris
It's not a lie. Stocks are income. You can sell them and get cash. They get taxed just like cash by the government. RSUs are an interest free loan on the underlying stock.
