Either I've been getting royally screwed at the places I've worked, or it's only pretty senior people who are making over 300k.
Depends on the role but most of the impacted folk are engineers. E4 is around 286k a year (now after much of the reset from post covid). E5 (senior software dev equiv so like 5 or so yoe) is 400k a year.
Most of the payment is in RSUs granted.
Also depends on where you live. Masters graduates get 200+ starting in SF Bay and Seattle. Senior can be 500+, Staff/Principal can get 700. That's not the average but it's attainable. levels.fyi is not perfect but it's accurate enough.
In the Bay Area, it’s been pretty easy to snag a 300k+ offer from one of these companies in the past 3-4 years with only 2+ years of experience. Just play the leetcode game.
Hiring has slowed though and the compensation is based on stocks, which have been more volatile.
