Ford software engineer salary reddit Your salary expectation is fairly acceptable and given the high demand for software engineers, it shouldn't be a stumbling block imo. Salary: $20. 5k, then 82. 8K per year for GSR 5 to $104K per year for LL3. I've been at Google for 7 years (started right out of school) and am trying to decide where to go next. e. found that 52% of employed people globally would be willing to take a 20% pay cut for better work/life balance. I’d say it’s similar to comparing an AR clerk to a CPA. Or it can be $187k. (See experienced salary sharing threads) In the last 6 months, I have been considering moving from patent law to software engineering. zennharheyhldqtlqcbybqgwbcqhqomkxqhxxyyvjdcochbedxvvffxvvzmyquucnlfqookuoj
