Brand new account just created today, claiming 230k TC without ever being a SWE before, and obtained a role that CS grads are currently struggling to even get an interview for. Yeah, no, this isn't a shill account and post at all.

I'll run in through several sources and see if it checks out. In my sources personally, I haven't seen FAANG placements from Codesmith for a while, so I'm curious what "recently" means, and what "FAANG" means.
Someone got a job paying 400K at Netflix, that wasn't a SWE role and was in the same field that the person had 8 years of background as a high performer in.
There were one or two Capital One placements that could be 230K TC, but that's not a FAANG company.
