In my experience that kind of pay differential exists in two places: Pakistan - US or Intern - Not intern.
All other roles for different ages I've ever seen has been based on experience and not age, and at the companies I've been that experience is only about 30-50% higher at the worst.
- user5994461 9y agoAt most companies I've seen, in a single team, two people doing the same thing with a similar amount of experience can have a difference of pay of double.

- coding123 9y agoThis is absolutely true- a two, three or four person team where they all have similar skills, similar ideas of good coding practices and a tight-knit method of idea sharing can blast through code and get things done in 24 hours that I've seen distributed teams of 15 in Pakistan, Mexico and India perform in 60-180 days. (In this specific case I am thinking of building out an MPI statistical patient matching). I'm not saying that kind of skill isn't found in those countries - but I'm specifically talking about a US company trying to do a software project like that. I'm fully aware a team in Pakistan that can plan and perform really well locally when the idea and project is thought of in Pakistan.
