I work at a competing firm and our SWE new grads make $420-470k (including signing bonus).

JS pays their new grads similarly, just a tiny bit lower.

I guess, I live in the wrong country and wrong profession if I want to make that much of money. This is an stupidly gigantic amount of money. I know that I will not make this much gross any year of my life, actually this is around 7-8 years of my gross annual salary.. I know US vs UE etc. Still this is crazy. Not sure how UE salary in the same field/category compares.

Fortunately for you money doesn't buy happiness and life has the same end point no matter how rich you are ::)

This isn't much US vs Europe, as industry sector. You can probably make comparable amounts of money in the same sectors in London, Amsterdam or Paris.
