Is it reasonable to ask for an entry level engineering job to start at 60K in the Bay area?

Question

I feel like I'm not getting enough. I'm geting 45K and 2 yrs experience now.

Answer 1

You need to find a new job NOW. I'm making about that much as a chemist with 1.5 years of experience, also in the Bay Area, and that still isn't as much as I should be payed. Engineers should always be making more than chemists!
