[quote=Anonymous]I have done hiring of PhD's, not lately though (meaning the last 4 years). And I used to be a young PhD. Unless you go into the financial services industry (nearly impossibly for someone without connections), 150K is a great starting salary (for DC at least). Heck, 150K is the salary of a GS15 -- meaning a senior gov't official. That would be at least mid career. However, the bay area is unbelievably expensive (even compared to DC) If I were hiring a PhD in Physics (where I would hire), here in DC I would probably be looking at 90-110K, depending on various factors. A PhD Scientist with 20-25 years post PhD most likely would be making between 150K and 200K, presuming they are 1) good, and 2) still technical. I know people that went to the Proj. Management route and got a quick bump (several years ago; salaries were lower) from 110K to 130K, but they max out at 175 unless they handle to big complex programs. [/quote]
