From what I've seen, this seems to have been the case at some point last year in SV-style companies in the US.
That whole chart seems off.
If I can act like a junior developer, I'll take a salary cut to 145k just so I don't need to do anything but develop, ask stupid questions and be able to clock out after work without worrying about any systemic team, company or other structural problems. Not even kidding!
You'll make more at any big tech as entry level engineer.
I made ~190k on my W-2 after first year at Microsoft.
