Hows Tech industry in Minneapolis. Whats it like to live there. Is it a good place for Software Engineers.
Amazon pays ~$150k for new grad SDE1s in Minneapolis, $200k+ for SDE2s, but Amazon is the exception, not the rule. If you’re not director level or not at Amazon it seems to be pretty hard to get similar comp as Bay Area.
Just got out of there myself and am headed to the Bay Area for more opportunity. It is… fine… you'll make okay money for Minnesota, but don't expect TC to break 150 or so. I was an L3 at one of the "Tech" companies there and barely cracked 100. Now I'm off to the bay at 250. There are a few somewhat interesting places, i.e. SmartThings, but there is not much of a serious tech scene.
I see ,let me ping you
