I have 4.5 years of experience in Software industry. I would like to know if 160K is a good salary in Palo Alto? How much would company like Microsoft and Amazon offer at a similar experience?
160 is a pretty good for a base salary, but usually expect a late RSU stock grant on top of that
Wow .US citizen and making 160K ..lucky you
At five years, you'd probably get an sde2 offer between 200-250 TC at msft in the bay. If you get senior, bump that by about 50k.
I would guess 160k TC is below the median for software engineers with 5 yoe in the bay. Possibly well below the median. New grads at top companies can make that much.

Is it only you? If so, this should be enough.
Yes, only for me. But I wanted to know if it is at par with other good companies at Bay Area
