what was the point? people get PHD to become professors cause they love teaching...
could have gotten at least 120k / year in 2021, that was the peak of the hiring / crazy TC with tech giants everywhere throwing money everywhere.
anyway cheer up, very very few fresh grads getting as much as u anyway at least in this crappy market. no point comparing top 0.5% fresh grads to urself rofl you're not top 0.5% buddy, not when u get a PhD only to go back to a generalist role, seriously wtf

2016-2020 was not engineering payscale. was bored of data analyst so thought of trying out the phd as an option. at least after 2022 now moved into an actual engineering role. non tech degree.
yea its not the most optimal path compared to CS grads who have a 4 year headstart. bobian. take it as a mid career break lo, got a long way to go till retirement anyway
