Temp agencies have very low overheads. They aren't even paying for the electricity and toilet paper their placements consume at work, let alone medical insurance.
Glassdoor says $138K base and $184K total comp at Salesforce for a SWE, with Senior SWE 10% higher.

From their 10k filing it looks like an average of $255k total expenses (including rent, etcetera) per employee.
This is for a good job. Temp agencies often pull about 30% of the total payment for each temp and permatemp they employ at another company. And they make a profit off of that overhead.
And I don't know about the jobs at Salesforce, but I find it odd that the person you're replying to assumed an average $125k per job. That's a really nicely compensated job, even if the $125k is total compensation, not just salary.
