I'm not sure that it is. 600k total I might believe someone got in the bay area for total comp, but for base salary? You'd have to be on the 1% of the 1% of devs to get that salary. It is by no means a common salary in even the US, much less the world

80% base, 20% bonus. Cyber security practice leadership (not software development).

Yes. $600k base (80%) + 20% for hitting assigned targets.

So 720k total? That is in no way a common job that an average developer can feel comfortable about getting
