So China pays much better than Western Europe? Is this actually true?
- baby 9y agoIf you're in HongKong probably.
- seanmcdirmid 9y agoHong Kong doesn’t pay programmers as well as Shenzhen outside of a few banking related jobs. Not a good comparison. HK is more of a business/banking center, so programmers don’t have as much status as they do across the border in Shenzhen.
- seanmcdirmid 9y agoWestern Europe sans Switzerland doesn’t pay very high, so ya. You’ll see more Europeans working tech in china than Americans. Likewise, Japan, Taiwan, and Korea also generally don’t pay programmers as much as China does, so you’ll see foreigners from those countries working in China (and the fact that they are next door).
- richardknop 9y agoYes. HK, Shenzhen, Beijing, Shanghai pay on par or better, especially if you are in finance / fintech / AI.
