They're overpaid. Boutique, as in small company, paying 65k for a graduate for a fresh faced 21/22 year old? Unbelievable and to be honest I'm not sure I believe it.
Overpaid or not, that's your opinion. But they sure as hell are making 60-65K. I have zero reason to lie here.
This thread seems to be filled with rampant dishonesty. Either SF is filled with bankers or we have some salary inflation going on here.

See, I don't understand this. Why would a struggling company hire an unproven graduate at such an extravagant salary? 125k for an accountant... Really doesn't make any sense...
I may have rooted through iammatt's trash at some point scavenging for food. I say that because there was one guy who would put a tiny little morsel of trash in the middle of a large, otherwise pristine garbage can.
In 2001 I took a job as a contractor to a large company and my hourly wage was $51/hr with no benefits. I was considered a Sr. Project Controls Engineer (support to a Project Manager w a BS in Business Information Systems) but I wasn't really Sr. which concerned me, I had 7-10 yrs of general experience in the field. It was a game that the contract company played as they new the they could charge more for Sr. people and make more money. It was a win/win even though I was kind of stressed about living up to my title for a while. I could have probably gotten $70K-$80K as a new grad with no experience at that time. I worked hard and gained respect taking the pressure off. I have been fortunate to remain a contractor working for the same company so I make time and a half for anything over 40 and now get pretty good bennies. In 10 plus yrs of raises, I now make $150K+ and rarely work more than 40. Also, the cost of living is pretty low here so that goes a long way, but I can tell you single guys that family eats it up pretty quickly with vacations, college tuition, braces, medical bills, car insurance for teenagers...............
