My friend is making about that as a new grad at a trading company.

He writes performant React code for high-speed table rendering. I know another guy making about that much at FB as a new grad. He works on Messenger games.

So in other words it's about how rich your company is, not how good your skillset is.

The rich companies are generally pretty demanding about the skillsets of job applicants. They can afford to be picky.

It’s both. You might be able to get a great offer, but usually won’t be able to get promoted without the skills.

Not really. The richest companies (1T peak valuations) don’t pay new grads this much.
