Netflix is known to be at the high end of salary as base pay. You can see the numbers yourself by looking at H1B petitions. I see many software engineers above $300k [1]. I don't think it's the norm in the valley, but for someone highly skilled it's attainable. [1] http://h1bdata.info/index.php?em=Netflix&job=SENIOR+SOFTWARE...

Agreed. Netflix is known to be an outlier. My understanding is that it is also a relatively high stress place to work.

Having met a number of Netflix employees (and knowing one extremely well), I don't think this is actually true. YMMV.

The high stress part or that their employees are generally near the top of the game?
