Yup. We pay six figs (not high six figs, but still double the local median wage) for decent talent. We don’t pay top salaries for our area, but we are about median for a comparable role. The problem is people seem to expect the top roles straight out of college, when they’re really junior level, if they’re competent at all.

6 figure jobs are still common, but not at the entry level. The companies that used to offer such thing are taking that money and investing in AI, thinking that they won’t need new blood.
They’re wrong, but that’s what’s happening.

Do you hire remotely too or only in-office? Even low six figures is high for me and I have 6 YoE. Joy of living in Europe.

Local, but we might consider remote of the right senior candidate comes along. We have 3 remote devs in a team of 20-ish.
