[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ICs (individual contributors) in the big tech companies are highly paid, often more than management. 200K-600K in the Bay Area and up to 300K in the DMV. Its not risk free and he or she needs to have depth and breadth, be able to work at a level that others can not and not get stuck in one of the "layers" as IT changes frequently. The changes are not just about the type of technology but the business model. Many IT skills that used to be valuable to organizations are now not needed as the big tech companies provide those services at scale. Off shore developers can easily replace line coders. Business needs change. If you are a brilliant engineer who has depth in your education and skill base. agile abilities, and stay on top of the changes you'll make as much or more than lawyers and doctors. [/quote] You’re right, but it really depends on the type of engineer. Not all specialties pay the same.[/quote]
