Two different skill sets and roles. The tech market is hot, so if you think you could make it as a SwE you should apply too

Post college comp ranges wildly. We could probably name several dozen professions that are under 50k as well.

Yes, software engineers going to the top tech companies make quite a bit more than the average consultant early in their career. It’s a very different job with a much smaller talent pool. If your sole priority is compensation then consulting is a solid choice but not the best choice.

The work I do is equally difficult and I have a smaller team because people have left, so there is no way “type” of law justifies this. I think I just did a poor job negotiating my salary and raise.
