I don't know if I can do this.

I was talking about all in what you make your first year, dividing the signing bonus by the number of years you have to work there to keep the signing bonus. And there’s plenty of other compensation that comes along as well. The numbers posted there are just the salaries, and it says 80K median 81.5K mean. Even this sounds a bit under what I’ve generally heard though.

Try and find someone who majored in CS going into software development making under 80K. You can probably find someone but it’s harder than you think.

And since I had it open, to add to the discussion in the other topic, 18 people reported being hired by Amazon full time and 32 by Microsoft. The majority of these will be CS majors going to software development. Together it’s a very substantial portion of those graduating with a CS degree.
