There are lots of opportunities to make that same type of comp at non FAANG companies. They're just not so clumped together, and don't have a cult-like following pumping them up in every thread.

Much harder to make 300k+ at a non faang/unicorn corporation

No it isn't. If you can make 300k+ at FAANG you can find a 300k+ job across dozens of public companies.
