For CS grads if you are willing to take a bit of risk for massive compensation and early retirement, can consider joining those startups instead.

I have a friend from CS after school chose to join one of those start ups doing ecosystem for logistical truck analytics. Although the starting pay was quite low (he told me ~4k compared to his peers joining MNCs for 7k), they offered a lot of stocks/options which can potentially be striking Toto.

After 2+ years there the startup was bought over by UPS and he was compensated nearly 700k to buyout the options. He has now invested the amount and achieve partial retirement which gives him financial security to work for another tech startup which meets his passion.
