Post W2 or it's not true.



levels.fyi bro. You get to L4/E4 within a year or two, which is for all practical purposes basically “new grad”


2 years in is explicitly not new grad. New grads are new grads.


Sure, if you want to get specifically technical about it. The overall gist of what the OP was talking about is still true. At most, you could say they’re slightly exaggerating, and should reword to “It’s not at all unusual for new college grads to make $250k a year.”


I don’t think it’s overly specific. New grads out of college are a mostly unknown value that is measured using proxies like GPA and pedigree. After 2 years of employment you’ve shown what value you can bring or have been removed from the employer.
