I work for a reasonably large tech company in Boston, MA. My company has about 1.2 billion in revenue and around 3500 employees.

I have 6 years of industry experience and my current pay package is as follows:

Base salary: 97,000 bonus: 10,000/year (everyone always gets 100% of this... i don't know why they bother call it bonus) RSU stock: 8000/year at present day valuation. My vesting schedule covers me for the next 5 years.

that brings my total pay to ~ 115,000/year

Given that, would folks say I am under/average/over paid? I read so much about how engineers at google and facebook are making ridiculous sums of money (almost 200k with bonuses included) and it makes me question my pay package.

thanks
