I recently got 120K TC out of college. Is it good? Should I still look for more opportunities? Its at Bank of America as SWE. I am burned out by last semester of college and applying and interviewing. I was happy getting that offer but heard bad reviews regarding BoA. TC: 120k Location: Jersey City #tech #softwareengineer
Product based company will help you in the long run
I was planning to jump ship after 1.5/2 years.
BofA
Deez nuts
You got the right job at the wrong company with the wrong pay. 1/3. Try to at least get 2/3.
pay is arguably good for jersey
well it’s arguably good in a lot of the US
That's extremely good OP. I was offered $120K salary at JPMorgan Chase in Jersey City with 3 YOE. Ended up not taking it, but point is that's a good offer. I'd personally take it. Only other company in Jersey I'd recommend if you don't mind commuting is iCIMs. Really good product based company. Only negative I'd say is that theyre in bed with Vista Equity.
Thank you. I will look into that as I live in Jersey. Really great points.
No, it's very meh. But what's even worse, is your propensity for wanting to do dick measuring to satisfy your ego.
That’s high for a BofA salary out of college at least
Are you kidding I’m making 94k at Bofa, college hire, no raise for 2 years. And your base pay is 1 fucking 20?!?
If you dont mind what’s yearly bonus like?
I got $1200 this year $500 last year. Peanuts.
120 is fine for bofa. I made less than that as an experienced hire there
Keep preparing while earning with bofa. Apply to tech companies after 12 month.
Thats the plan. Thank you
Get a job at a tech company if you can.
I am actively applying. I am just tired of interviewing. I failed my Meta final rounds and lost all hopes.
You have an offer now. Use that to boost your energy while you keep looking. If you don’t have visa problems, you can try startups too.
