You, or you and a partner? Do you work in finance?
I'm having trouble with my idea of average dev salaries and zone 2 prices equalling comfortable (i.e. nice amount of savings and disposable income after mortgage payment). If non-finance, I must be really out of touch with London salaries. I had an email today offering "up to £50k" for a devops position at a web agency...risible.

- muzfuz 10y agoMyself and a partner, and no I'm not in finance, and don't plan to be any time soon. Also, it's the very edge of zone 2, so that helps.
- user5994461 10y agoRisible indeed. Lemme give you more perspective of London salaries. Good you are in DevOps because I got that keyword on my resume too. These are all the LinkedIn messages with a salary range I got since the beginning of February. Mostly from recruiters. (target: typical 20-30 years old, nothing special). * DevOps Engineer - Cloud Managed Service - Aldgate east (London) - £50k - £65k * DevOps Engineer - a global digital market agency - Canary Wharf - £60k - £70k * DevOps Engineer - Kings Cross - £65k - £75k * SysAdmin (DevOps) - £50k * Senior Site Reliability Engineer - market leading eCommerce client based in London - £70,000 + 20% bonus and competitive benefits. * Consultant on <specific tech I worked on before> + DevOps - "The day rate is around the £800 mark." * world’s largest peer to peer lending services - up to £75K + benefits. * London’s leading Cloud and Automation Consultancies (within financial services). - up to £60K + benefits.. Of course, it's only the 9th right now. The month just begins :D
