I never said FAANG pays 200k base. Companies who only pay in cash will have their total compensation be 200k. FAANG meanwhile pays a lower base, such as 170k, and the rest is RSUs. While FAANG base is lower, their total compensation is higher than other companies.

Curious, which companies "pay in cash"? (I'm not from US)

Most companies pay in cash. It's really among FAANG and FAANG adjacent that pay in RSUs. Fortune 500s pay in cash, many of them at least.
