Two Sr. Software Engineers with 3-5 years of experience can probably make $130-150k. That’s a combine income of $260-300k/year. They can easily qualify for $1m house. So, I don’t know what you’re talking about.[/quote]

“In accordance with Labor Code Section 515.5(a)(4), the department has adjusted the computer software employee’s minimum hourly rate of pay exemption from $47.48 to $50.00, the minimum monthly salary exemption from $8,242.32 to $8,679.16, and the minimum annual salary exemption from $98,907.70 to $104,149.81 effective January 1, 2022, reflecting the 5.3% increase in the California Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers.”
So this survey suggests there’s a lot of employer violating CA employment laws if they are exempt salaried employees or they could be violating overtime rules for software engineers that are paid hourly, unless they hired software engineers that work less than 40 hours/week…How many companies hire software engineers on an hourly basis and let them work less than 40 hours/week, based on experiences of running software projects?
I can definitely say even for Florida software engineer wages, these averages would be low. Because our wages are not even this low based out in Florida. They are about $20k higher at each band, excluding cash bonus was about 10% this year for non-managers, and a 5% 401k match on top of that. And that’s pretty shitty relative to some of the other employers hiring out here. Which is why we keep losing people 🙂
