    We had a student graduate and take a job out the gate for $430k about 3 years ago. With a BS. Just an insane number equivalent to $250k in 2001, a number none of my peers were near at the time.

    Large salaries like that are certainly a sign of unhealth, and this industry likes to push itself there periodically.

    So maybe it doesn’t get back to that point, but I suspect it will return to previous normal levels. TBH, though, I think it will someday go insane again.
