They’re paid fine in MoCo. Don’t turn this isn’t to “poor teacher” thread.

I work in IT and these salaries are inflated with bonuses and some are not inclusive if benefits….like ALL OTHER THREADS ON THIS SUBJECT.

You can’t look at the salary alone, you have to look at the number of hours, benefits, bonuses, profit sharing, stability, and salary. I know consultants in IT that make huge salaries but it’s an hourly rate with no benefits at all and work a lot of hours too.

44, $103k, teacher
DW 48, $60k patent paralegal (used to do document review but income was too inconsistent year to year)

We live comfortably.

You said “average salary of 30-40 year old.” No salary on here will be representative of the true average in DC.

My immediate thought is that they're definitely adding RSUs and the like to these figures.

Maybe 1 in 5,000 of them. The median salary for comp sci/comp engineering majors from top universities is under 100k

I should clarify, that median includes all compensation as well as signing bonuses.

We pay first year undergrads almost $200K in base, stock and bonus.

I myself make about $700K a year and I’m kind of on the low end to be honest.

Tech is booming. Salaries are enormous. I recently asked one company for $2M a year and they didn’t balk.
