    One engineer at a company like this produces literally millions of dollars in revenue and savings. Practically no one is paid “too much” and anyone who says they are doesn’t know what they’re talking about. Even if they make over 100k.

    I can assure even at 200k the company would still be extracting value from most employees. They pay as little as the market lets them get away with.

    The only people who are paid too much at these tech companies are the execs, especially the ones who have no clue what they’re doing and constantly fuck things up.

      $200k a year in Silicon Valley isn’t exactly getting anyone a mansion and a yacht.
