Yes but that's largely due to stock appreciation at Amazon.

You and I both know that the target comp for SDE-3 at Amazon is significantly lower.

Only in the last 2 years. My comp went from $70K in 2011 to nearly $400K in 2016 without stock appreciation making any material impact. I got an offer from Oracle in 2016 for $380K. Amazon matched it, and then stock appreciation added another $80K in 2017 and $130K in 2018.
