Is the 200-220k number salary or TC?
Either way, it seems roughly right if not a little high for total market (all geographies, all types of businesses) at 5 YOE.
Without knowing your focus area, I can say try to look at companies generally known for pay top of market irrespective of role/department; if they pay everyone well, they’ll likely pay their legal dept well. Then narrow that list by companies that have a need for your practice and industry focus, filter by desired geography … you get the idea.

The 200-220 salary range you see is only base salary. Total compensation could be significantly more than that especially for tech companies.
The low 200s base for commercial counsel is market for hcol areas from what I’ve seen. Expect less for other COLs. Tech companies can help with stock comp on top of that, with some bonus.

you are only 5YOE total and 0YOE in house, dont look for salary but look for a solid in house role that will get your foot in the door

Yeah 5 YOE is not much and would get you the "junior" in house roles which 220k base would be pretty good. Senior roles (YOE 8-10+) are the ones with bases of 250-300k.
200-220 sounds right for 5 YOE in this market. A few tech and pharma companies might pay more, but usually (not always) they will be looking for more YOE.
