Facebook is paying 40-50 percent more than other places, which is usually a sign developers don’t want to work there.
More likely a sign of a high hiring bar and corresponding paycheck.

I believe supply and demand with market rates is a much bigger factor on the average Facebook engineer salary than the quality of the engineer. For one, we are only dealing with a discrepancy on the order of 40-50%. Is a good engineer only 40-50% better than an average engineer?
They insist only on hiring those who pass their interview.
Seems to overlap with the set of good devs, but it's definitely not the entire set.
Which hey, good for them I guess.
