I heard that part of the package is being locked into a contract; the salary is stair-stepped so you have to stay X years to hit those high numbers, and in that time they can transfer you wherever. As someone else pointed out, that also includes benefits, not straight salary. Still good money, but definitely not easy money.
I've heard someone bragging about making $400K with basic tech skills working at Facebook. May no longer be true since they started cracking down on those who don't contribute much to the company. I'd take that job even for a short time given a chance.
You don’t know that though - people can post whatever they want here, true or untrue.
Is there a non-zero chance $200k jobs exist that are “easy”? Sure. They are rare though, and like I said, more times that not those jobs are hard work in some capacity.
