This seems reasonable; mapping() already exists for use in this space
(as a combinator for the downstream collector of groupingBy and
friends), filtering() is also reasonable in this context.

My first thought is what’s wrong with
stream.filter(predicate).collect(...)?
In your case, that would be,
amps.stream().filter(e -> e.getSalary() > 2000)
.collect(groupingBy(Employee::getDepartment), Collectors.counting())
That should work just fine?
Unfortunately, not, Stream#filter could not satisfy us in this case.
Because when I filter before collecting, the entry which the value is
0 will not be appeared in the result map.
Ex)
filtering collector(Collectors#filtering): http://ideone.com/83Lzb7
filtering before collecting(Stream#filter): http://ideone.com/EmTrXE
