I'm in exec role at a 100-200 person east coast startup with significant YOE (both as IC and as an exec). My own comp, including bonus, is close to $300k. Most of our SWE roles are in the range of $165-200k salary & bonus, plus equity. It's been a very rare occurrence to have an offer turned down because of money.

I came from larger companies (including a FAANG), and compensation there (salary, bonus, and RSUs) ranged from 1.5-3x my current compensation. Most of the people on my teams were in the $250k-300k range, with a few others at least doubling that. Some amount of that was driven by stock appreciation in a bull market.

The money's definitely out there, especially at higher levels in public companies.

Right, I'm not denying that - it's just that Levels.fyi puts numbers that high at 90% percentile TC, the industry median is still significantly lower.
