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.
Thats what I thought is average here in DC .. and what % of population here in DC metro works in FAANG . I guess may be 2-3% ?
2-3% might be true several years ago, but not anymore. FAANG are expanding their DC offices. Amazon is very obvious, but F and G are aggressively trying as well. During covid, they both renovated and expanded their DC office. I also have friends relocated to DC because there are gonna be more new initiative.
Many tech people have the misconception that FAANG DC does not provide many positions, so they don't even look here. I highly recommend local engineers to give it a try if you want to bump the pay before others find the gem. The standard pay rate of DC is only 10% less than Bay Area rate, which is very competitive here.
..and no need to master the language of writing English....
What do you mean? I have no problem understanding the OP you quoted

Did someone in the company refer you? I tried so hard to get an interview and was told that I need to be referred.
