What kinds of companies are paying your friends $200k to write software?

Usually it's not $200k salary, but compensation package. A typical example is: $165k base salary, $25k annual bonus, $40k stock.

Sorry, I won't mention any particular companies, but if you're close to anyone at a major software firm, you should easily be able to find out what it's like.
