An under remarked-upon trend: SFBA/NYC engineering wages are starting to drive engineering wages in the rest of the US as these companies open other US hubs and print remote offers, in both cases keeping salaries in relatively tight bands for e.g. internal fairness reasons.

The modal software engineer in the US is still working for a digital marketing agency or midwestern insurance company but capitalism is starting to say "Look if you can paint pixels on a web application and you presently work in a cost center, that's unacceptably inefficient."

Amazon and Microsoft aren't SFBA companies. Both are headquartered in the Seattle area! I know you know that but some in your enormous following probably don't.

For a different perspective on this, I make a good living coaching a fraction of a percent of those AppAmaGooBookSoft hires. Which means there’s still HUGE variability in the salaries being offered and paid in nominal terms. A lot of money splashing around in engineering hiring.
