Before this gets inundated with people making comments about Googler data scientists making $400k, these are folks with PhDs in math or statistics, very accomplished academic literature, leaders in their fields. These are not people messing around with Haskell on the weekends and leaving an insurance firm's IT department to go to Google.

They also don't make $400k – an engineer that costs $400k doesn't get that in take home pay.

There are enough non-executive engineers at Google making half a million or more base/cash comp that you could fill a room with them. That's not the point.
