Question: Is the market in SF so inundated with CF Developers that a SENIOR CF developer can only get 70-80k? Is this what everyone is seeing elsewhere? How could someone live on that in SF with the way cost of living is there? You would have to be a two-income household if you wanted to own a house, that's for sure, and it's probably out of the question. What happened to salaries in the bay area being higher than other areas of the country? I've seen SR. developer positions for 100k plus, although not many anymore. Any one have any comments on what's happening out there?
For those of us who have 8+ years of experience in CF, it seems that our only option to earn "what we are worth" is to go into management or go off on our own doing consulting. Is this the career path of a CF developer? Surely there are other options. I'd love to hear everyone's comments on this, especially those with many years of experience in CF like myself.
