But salaries are stalled at 60-70K, right?
EDIT: I mean for experienced engineers.
- ido 9y ago€60k/year is generally speaking a significantly above average salary for Berlin.
- sqidyyy 9y agoVery far above average.
- denzil_correa 9y agoDo we have an income distribution of salaries in Berlin (or Germany)?
- adrianN 9y agoIf you are a highly skilled engineer working for a big company maybe. Software engineers get like 40k. Normal people a lot less.

- maephisto 9y agoThat used to be true. But lately, the demand has grown bigger and bigger and if you look over some job boards you'll see salary ranges that raise the average handsomely. On the other hand, 60k still is almost 3 time the average salary in Berlin so it can take you quite far.
- sarabande 9y agoGood developers can make significantly more than that because of foreign entrants and competition, see for example: https://stackoverflow.com/jobs/developer-jobs-in-berlin?sort=y https://stackoverflow.com/jobs/developer-jobs-in-berlin?sort...
- johannkaupen 9y agoFor experienced engineers at a funded startup you can be way above €60-70k.
- jashmatthews 9y agoTop end of the market here for skilled C++ developers is more like €100-120k. So it's possible to earn a lot more 60k than but you won't do it building CRUD apps for a poorly funded copycat startup. SoundCloud had plenty of engineers on €90k+. HERE Maps also pays very well. Even a lot of the startups are openly offering ~€80k on StackOverflow and AngelList for genuinely skilled Ruby/JS developers and you can always negotiate a little higher.
- zerr 9y agoAFAIK only one company pays 100K-120K in Berlin, doing some Excel plugins in C++, but they have very alarming reviews on Glassdoor.
- jashmatthews 9y agoCoreOS pay in a similar range for systems development in Go. Still cheaper than paying their SF based employees!
