For MIT grads, their stats in Computer Software are low $60,000 to high $160,000 with the bonus mean of $30,345.  Their tops didn't hit $400,000 - at least not in 2018.  Of course, this doesn't prevent $400,000, or a pie in the sky, in any other year.

MIT CS salaries for Consulting jobs are in the $80K range, quite a departure from the $115 someone quoted earlier.  That was for Software Engineering & Gaming jobs which includes some FAANG and startups, but in reality this is a minority, like top 10% of MIT grads, rest are in the $80k to $100k range, just like other CS grads from state schools, may be they get $10K more, or like another poster said the state school candidate get $10k more if they have additional skill sets & certification.

Oh well, the DCUM bandwagon of misinformation rolls on   :roll:

You are spreading misinformation yourself. The survey is for all MIT graduates, not just EECS. We don't know how many EECS went into consulting. I see BCG and McKinsey are listed for EECS. But your run-of-the-mill system integrator consulting, like BAH is not listed.[/quote]

This thread is about CS, and the salary split is clearly for specific majors, within that sub-classifications. Get a grip, and learn to read. MIT grads who go into IT consulting make $82k on average. Oh wow BCH and McKinsey are what? BAH is run of the mill. Clearly, you got no clue on Tech or Consulting, you must be a DC lawyer or lobbyist. The most clueless lot.

Funny, if CS is all about technical knowledge that any state university can provide, why aren't community college IT graduates rising to the top?  How about the code monkeys who graduated from coding bootcamps?  When can we expect them to become CEOs of FAANG?[/quote]
