I'm really confused are they saying the median or mean salary is 200k?

All benefits included that’s likely to be true. A starting software engineer job out of college hits over 100k$ in salary alone. It’s probably offset by administrative roles, but still you can get past 500k$ with ten to twenty years of experience. Not unheard that top employees will have compensations in the million.

But is it the mean salary is 200k or the median because it can't be the lowest and usually the two are very far apart.
