Rising Star
Ill start. As a fresh grad in structural engineering. My career is currently feeling like a big ass mistake 🤣😭 This should be illegal
Rising Star
Waiting patiently to be upgraded to "underpaid genius"
Doing great, still broke. Wish I was at least underpaid like a boomer—at least they had hope of owning something.
Don't be one of those people insulting people as an opening then trying to add anything of substance after
Software Engineer, 20 years experience
Make around $400k between salary, bonus, and equity. Net Worth is around 1.5m.
Doing Great. God is good

Good to hear!
I have almost 3 YOE in the biopharma industry, currently in the “comfortable” band but it doesn’t feel like it as i live in a HCOL area 😭
Comfortable - but I'd consider my city a LCOL area, and I have <2YOE so it feels pretty good.
The ranges are highly dependent on COL. I'm with you in that range.
Doing great, almost 6 YOE, definitely far more money than I need
Ahhh..should have known....because you work at Salesforce
.............I'll see my self out
Doing great, but still hustling!
Chief
The hustle never ends
Well for starters I wouldn't consider 300k to be rich in VHCOL city. Maybe multiply that by 3?
Yeah I’m technically “doing great” but it feels more like at the bottom end of comfortable based on how expensive everything is.
I’ve got friends here that are firmly in the rich category but live basically modest middle class lifestyles as compared to the 80s-90s
Comfortable base. Doing great with overtime.
Doing great! $160k
Semis, 32 YOE, DG.

Doing great and 7YOE
So close to comfortable I can taste it, but still an underpaid genius. 3+ YOE in biopharma, 15+ in life sciences.
Comfortable. I will probably stay at comfortable for the quite a while in my current position.
My information is in Levels.fyi. good source of data people should become more familiar with especially in today's market.
