Compensation figures on 80000 hours

How accurate are these figures at top shops like Jane street, Sig, DE Shaw, and Two Sigma? It feels like the article is written by a Jane street trader, but the 1000000 dollar average seems high.

Note they provided more descriptive statistics. Estimated median pay of 250-700 and mean of 1mm+. I think these numbers aren't too far off the mark, though perhaps a bit high. For every person making 2mm, you'll have two making 500k to come up with that mean number. If you make it, whichever half of the spectrum you fall on you'll still be making a comfortable living.

 

My apologies, I misinterpreted it as reasonable expectations for the median and mean income for your career there. Any thoughts on how these top shops compare to each other and to the stated figures?
