All » Confessions » I just realized fresh grads at Google make something like 200k after RSUs and bonuses.I made like 70k when I graduated 7 years ago. Is this what other companies in the Bay Area pay their fresh grad programmers???

Facebook and Netflix offer better compensation than Google. Microsoft and Apple offer a bit less. But it’s all pretty close. For startups salaries are all over the place. Some, like Dropbox pay very well. Others don’t.
Fresh grads in hot fields (machine learning/AI/big data) can start at 500k, but they are outliers.
taxes and housing eats up lots of that.
