[quote=Coronita][quote=an]$130k? That’s probably regular software engineer salary. 5-10 years of experience and you’re looking at base of $150k-ish. Added in RSU, ESPP, cash/stock bonus, etc. and you’re probably looking at $160-190k. So, if you have two of them making similar, you’re now at $320-380k/year. Can probably afford $1.5-2M.[/quote]
Closer to $250k total comp per person.[/quote]
Yep, I was just under estimating to show that even on the low side, $1.5-2M is no longer crazy. at $200-250k, it should be a walk in the park.
Once we have several thousands of these engineers here, this will start pushing engineer salary here in SD.
