[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are doing CS and get into MIT, CMU, or Stanford (these are consistently tied for #1 and within the industry are considered miles apart from all others) and you want to get a full-ride PhD or are willing to work hard for lots of money - then you should always go that route. If your goal is 9-5 topping out around $150 -any of the top 25 schools are good. [/quote] CS topping out at $150K? That's pretty funny, I wish I could find talent at 150. Our average developer with 10+ years exp makes 200K with bonus at my company in Virginia. Directors and above are around 300. The difference with MIT is the increased potential to get involved in equity arrangements that can easily land in 7 figures.[/quote] But you are in the DMV where salaries are higher, as are job expectations. A lot of CS jobs are really just code monkeys. [/quote]
