I always thought Microsoft paid more on base salary. Stock comp is kind of lower from what I’ve read online so interesting to see from a real experience. Thanks for sharing
We all know most tech people are looking for a second path to being "influencers." Stop this boring trait and don't raise people hope for your own gain.
This is only big tech. Other companies generally are not paying as much money. Software Engineers in big tech have strong industry alignment. The work they do directly affects a company’s product (their money maker). It only would make sense to pay SWEs a ton of money in big tech. The goal is to find an industry that places a high value on your role. That’s how you unlock high salaries.

What level are you, 60, 61, 62?

Software engineers get paid so much. No other major gets this much pay with 4 year degree. This is such an unfair to other majors
Don't judge the book by the cover
the job is a toxic relationship
