Big Company vs. Startup Work and Compensation
I've been out of school 3-4 years, and I work at a large company. I'm about 10% a manager, 10% a resident data scientist, and 80% a coder, and I love my job.

Looking at the salary numbers from H1b applications (

), I wouldn't find that too far fetched. To add to that, I know someone who went there as "senior" with 5 years of work experience

To provide a counterpoint, I don't think that's suspect at all. I just thought of ten individual people with that salary at that age (or younger).
Just sharing anecdote for anecdote.

My personal observations (at a bigco) suggest that it's not super unusual to have 200k-250k total comp at a bigco after a few years.
