Isn’t there a very real cap of say 200-225k for senior level regardless of where you go tho?

After that would be faang which itself is the endgame except (in some cases) jumping between faangs could get you more

At FAANG and adjacent that’s closer to the bottom of the career ladder. A Sr. at FAANG is pulling in closer to 350-400 TC. Staff, PE, and above will go significantly higher.

Well yeah that’s what I said… my main point was that unless you job hop into a faang, you’re quickly at the ceiling

And once you’re in a faang, there’s no higher to go
