On: Why do business analysts and PMs get higher salaries than programmers?

I'm a little surprised that the top answers on Stack Exchange accept the premise that analysts and PMs get paid higher salaries. That is certainly not the case at my company (mid sized tech startup), nor I would imagine at most other tech companies.

I'd argue that most programmers don't work at tech companies.

this is the case for many larger organisations.
