I highly agree, my first industry job at a biotech in CA Bay Area as a bench scientist, with a bachelor’s degree, pays out $100k per year as base salary (it’s actually lower than the average salary of similar position at the same company ~110-125k) which comes out to $60k a year after taxes. I was less than half as much in academia smh
