Honestly I'm okay with a super-tough theoretical interview when a very high and very comfortable compensation and benefits package is at stake. Every other job I can think of that pays nearly as much as tech requires years of education/apprenticeship, brutal exams, and less flexibility around things like location, work/life balance, and dress code.

Right. I despise the interview process we've landed on in the industry, but have slowly and painfully come to terms with it as a decent bad way of doing it to balance between having some competency bar and the usual heavy gatekeeping solution.
