Keep in mind the work being done. He emphasizes its simplicity. This is not a senior role requiring a huge amount of expertise.

Of course, he's probably charging too little in general. Everyone is.

    $156k is 3x my salary from a few months ago and I'm building out business critical systems, not dreamweaver level websites

      Having been severely underpaid myself in the past, please know that you are _severely underpaid_.

      You should definitely look for somewhere else that will pay you more money. If you'd like to discuss it offline, I'm happy to.

      Consider that the toilet in my office is a business critical system. If it doesn't work, nobody else does.
