Wait? What? Which engineers are getting paid $200K?
If that's the ballpark I must have been playing a different sport for the last 6 years.
Anyhow, I've also had a swig of the kool-aid over those years and is now the basis of my new-found freedom and upstart dreams... time will tell if that investment paid off however.
The engineers I know who are making $200k+ are either working at Goldman Sachs (and only GS for some reason) in New York. The others have left engineering to become IP lawyers, or to become financial analysts and leverage their understanding of the enterprise technology market at ... you guessed it, Goldman Sachs.
