Another data point from a couple months ago -- I have about 15 years of experience including FAANG, went on the job market (fully remote only; I'm not in SF) and ended up with two offers. Senior SWE at a small but public tech company everyone has heard of, and Staff at a late-stage startup on track to IPO ~next year. Both offers were about $500k (the startup a little more but paper money); I took the former one.

I've also spent large parts of my career as an independent consultant -- similar compensation most years.
