That's about £23,000 to £33,000 take home. A bit above average for a graduate CS job. Less than you'd expect for a 30-35 year old with degree plus experience.

(roughly anyway)
- IdeaHamster 17y agoThanks! That explains my reaction, as I'm closer to being in the later group than the former. This probably also explains the promotion. I imagine that the fresh-outta-college type is more likely to be impressed by a free iPad offer than a journeyman programmer would be.
- ErrantX 17y agoYep my thoughts entirely; this will be a swinger for graduates looking for a job. When you pop above 45K here tax starts to get excruciating (40%) so that is probably why the upper limit is sat there (I get 8% year on year increase in my current job and it's barely noticeable due to tax...)
- adamt 17y agoIt's a bit of misconception that tax increases that much - as national insurance drops off. E.g http://www.thesalarycalculator.co.uk/salary.php http://www.thesalarycalculator.co.uk/salary.php (figures in GBP) 30k -> 22.6k (25% total employee tax burden) 45k -> 32.8K (27% total employee tax burden) 90k -> 59.4K (34% total employee tax burden) 135k -> 86.0K (36% total employee tax burden)
- ErrantX 17y agoYou missed a key figure though: 60K -> 41.7K (30% total employee tax burden) There is a sudden big leap (of an extra 1%) in that particular range before it settles back down again.
