People working at Cisco aren't cracking $150k until they're mid-level at minimum. The people on this thread are completely out of touch.

AFAIK people aren’t giving up middle class lives elsewhere in the US and relocating for Cisco.

To most people, Cisco would be considered a high paying employer. If anything, people are giving up middle class lives in other countries and relocating to San Jose for Cisco.

Living 5 adults to a house in San Jose might genuinely be better than living in India. I wouldn’t know. The point is if you have moved to Wisconsin or whatever, it would be foolish to move back to San Jose for that.
