Honestly I'm working as a full stack developer, mainly node.js/angular here in Austin at a small/medium sized company. The business isn't really tech, but we have a ~10 or so dev/design team. Only paid 55k per year and I feel like I won't ever get to market rate just staying here. I love the company, the culture, and the people, but I just feel way undervalued. I know I'm going to have to look elsewhere, because I need the money, but at the same time I wish I didn't have to. This is my first "real" job out of college.
