My group makes over $100/hr hueyone. We used to work for less with options. But all the past figures assumed something that is no longer true- that tech companies would innovate and release the same number of new products, with the same schedules as they did during the bubble. I think we all know that isn't happening. So if you don't release any new products or you cut down the schedule considerably as most software companies have done, then you don't need highly paid engineering talent, very true. I know intel has a small number of new products coming down but this is nothing like the 90s when there were 2 chips released every 6 mos it seemed... I know, I had to deal with all the new SKUs at Dell, it was a nightmare. For a while we had a pentium pro, pentium and then the celeron line, all this required multiple teams. I think intel must have cut significant staff already.
