Is this really how it is with engineer and other techie jobs? I work at oracle and my wife works at salesforce - granted we both lead sales orgs, but base salary is the same (within $15k or so depending on how badly we want somebody) regardless of where somebody lives. I have about 12 reps in California and 10 in Midwest (various cities) and there really isn’t any difference. I never even thought of COL as a factor for base salary.
