$300k is also on the high end. Most devs have a very difficult time getting hired at companies that pay that much. $300k is probably in the top 10-15% for software engineers if I had the guess. And I assume the top 10-15% in Paris is substantially more than 80k? Edit: Okay, I guess $300k is near the median in SF if you’re including stock options. (Media base salary in SF is 150-160k) | ||

It's definitely on the high end. Besides the fact that most startup equity ends up being worthless, you can't wait on a four year cliff to pay your rent. | ||

>And I assume the top 10-15% in Paris is substantially more than 80k? I don't think that's a good assumption. 80k is rather high for Paris. That's a Google salary at their small office there (or it was when I checked a few years ago). I think the OP's comparison was pretty reasonable. | ||

Top graduates in France make 40-50k. This is the reality I have seen. Salaries are often tabulated with limited range. | ||
