I think this is changing (for the higher) in some low cost of living areas (although I can't speak for the midwest) as tech talent moves out of SF. My good friend just got a $120k offer for a pretty "routine" new grad job.

what location and what company (if you can share?) Most ranges I've seen around this parts are 80-120k and upwards of 140-150 for senior talent.

Y'know - a bit of a brain fart on my part, because I forgot we were discussing the midwest in particular and not low cost of living in general.

This was an offer in North Carolina for a testing role, but I'd rather not share the company without asking her.
