six figures for a junior programmer, no less

I almost added that, but I'll be real, I have no clue what a junior programmer is lmao

For all I know it's the equivalent to a journeyman or something

Junior programmer is who trains the interns and manages the actual work the seniors take credit for.

I was gonna say, if this person is making $145k, they are not a “junior” in any realistic sense of the term. It would be nice if computer programming and software development became a legitimate profession.
