California has a minimum wage for software employees to be salaried and not pay them overtime (salaried exempt). It's about $123k. I've never seen an entry level position that didn't expect overtime, so $110k is actually low unless it's a part time internship.

Also leaving that link there for anyone who might have just discovered their employer is doing wage theft and owes them a lot of money.
