Uh.... Just saying.... you (or others reading) need to think in much bigger numbers for that extreme of a schedule... Entry level devs at FANG make around that amount of money..... and we didn't work nearly that many hours at the office.....

For the absolute bottom rung, not exactly 400k, but around there. Also depends on the city and team.

The main point is that if you're gonna work a 996, you better be making at least $1M/year or more (honestly probably more, I tend to undershoot salaries) for it to be worth it. Otherwise, just get a normal FANG job if you only want to make $400k (lower end for FANG).

Can you post a link this 400k entry level job?
