i make good money but not FAANG. like quarter million a year + equity that is sometimes liquid for more.
i do it remote and for a company that isn't so brutally antagonistic as meta. remote also means i don't commute, don't get trapped in an office for 40+ hrs/week, and can spend more time during the workday on my personal life than work itself.
so i make less money in an absolute sense, but i am not in any pain or being surveilled or being bullied to work hard.
and honestly i make more money per hour worked than a meta employee. so lower salary, higher effective hourly wage.
