I don't know about that, I have had offers from Co's in SF SJ and the East Bay and all have been in the 120k range. As far as contracting goes...I charge 100 plus expenses or 125 all inclusive and have been doing that for over 10 years with steady work the whole time. I take 2 months in the summer off and from the 15th of Nov to the 5 of Jan never had to worry about getting work or the rate.

While the SF Bay Area is an expensive place to live, often that has nothing to do with compensation. For $120K + benefits, you would have to be a stellar Remedy developer with solid credentials, and you would need to find an employer with a strong need for an permanent fulltime AR System or ITSM developer. Good luck with that. San Jose has no shortage of developers so you will have plenty of competition. Feel free to contact me directly (off the ARSlist) if you are interested in contacting some local headhunters. An alternative is consulting/contracting, where rates of $50/hour - $100/hour are possible. The equivalent of $120K salary plus 33% burden rate is $160K/year, or $80/hour. Going through an agency will reduce your compensation by 30-40%, so an engagement billing at $100/hour would be $60-70/hour to you. Check the job boards (Dice, Monster, etc.) for availability. Also, are you strictly looking at San Jose, or would you also consider opportunities on the peninsula or in San Francisco? -- Bing Bradford Bingel ("Bing") ITM3 California http://www.itm3.com/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] (email) 925-260-6394 (mobile) ________________________________ From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tortolero, Joseph Sent: Tuesday, August 05, 2008 5:01 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Salary in Bay Area ** At least 120k a year plus benefits.
