[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just to let everybody know, the salaries that have been reported here are, for the most part, so outlandish compared to what the average computer science or engineering grad can home to make coming out of a top 25 program as to be worth ignoring. These folks are the the 1% of graduates. Not everybody can work at FAANG. By comparison, the average salary for a top 25-ish fresh computer engineer is 91k, but at google it's more like 170k.

Exactly this.  I work in a local tech company that sells to the DoD.  None of our engineers are making that kind of money.  $150K for managers, $130K or so for senior developers, 80k for new hires fresh out of school.  [/quote]

Gov con tech jobs don't pay well unless you have TS/SCI. It really doesn't even matter if you went to an Ivy league, I know plenty of people without degrees in CS (state school) who make 200k+. More than "graduates" or "school prestige", it matters way more to what company/industry you're in. L3 (entry level google engineer) will get 160-170k in TC but Google is one of the biggest tech companies. Getting a job at a tech company is definitely not something that you need to do like a doctor/lawyer would. [/quote]
