[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a mom and stopped RTO because it was a time suck, so work from home. So I'm like those dads. Otherwise, I notice some parents stay at home or have very part-time jobs because the spouse makes $$$. Think spouse works at Amazon so mom can be a freelance graphic designer sort of thing. Some people negotiated fulltime WFH during Covid and got grandfathered in. Also, don't forget in expensive cities, a lot of people have generational wealth or some sort of leg up that affords them to not work full-time.[/quote]

How much do you think people make at Amazon on average, that would allow them to have a stay at home spouse in the most expensive neighborhood of Arlington?[/quote]

Not sure about Amazon, but DH is a manager at another big tech company and clears $500K before any stock appreciation with under 10 YOE. Directors (2 levels up, average age is probably around 40) are easily over $1M and VPs (mid 40s) are minimum $2M but most push $3-4M. And that’s before any stock gains.  If you hit EVP you’re mid-7s or higher. [/quote]

PP here - forgot to add those #s are for non technical roles. I’d multiply by 1.5 - 2 for technical roles at each level eg SWE Manager should be around $600-750K etc. [/quote]

Google? Otherwise, you’re out of your mind.[/quote]

Google, Meta, OpenAI (w recent PPUs refresh for all employees including 2024 grads their average employee is over $1M now regardless of level), Coinbase, NVIDIA, Apple, Anthropic, Twitter before the Elon buyout.

Big Tech and the leading crypto / AI companies are a beast comp-wise and employ hundreds of thousands (millions?) collectively.

People around the DC area don’t realize how well those companies pay because we’re a law/policy focused job market and most of these employees are on the west coast or NYC. It’s kinda an IYKYK around here still. [/quote]

$1M in Bay Area is like $500k here. [/quote]
