Isn't this clickbait? They found one engineering job at Netflix, a company already known for paying exceedingly high salaries, and they turned it into a headline. I don't think it's news that tech companies pay high salaries for professionals...it was even higher during the 2020-21 bubble. Besides, the job posting said up to $900k.

Next headline at WSJ; The $10M CEO Job Is Here.

I wish I was in the position to not be shocked by a salary of almost a million USD.
This ignores that Netflix lists salaries like this to "comply" with the CA law requiring companies to list salary ranges.
there is something wrong with the CA law if companies can post jobs with such huge salary range?
As I understand, companies just hide too large salary because of high taxes. So they could really pay very large money, but in some in-directional way. For example, they could give worker "blue chips" for payment amount.
