In Berlin too: salaries stay much the same, but rents are skyrocketing. In 2010 a 40sqm apartment was around ~400/500€ in city ring, now they are around 700€, and the price is always without electricity and internet connection, which are extra.
If you look for a 90sqm apartment, you have to plan 1400€ at least. In general, the more rooms you want, the more you have to pay for.
- jashmatthews 9y agoSalaries in start-up land are skyrocketing for high performing employees. SoundCloud had an average salary of ~€90k or something close to it. Lots of dual income, no kid hipster professional couples with tons of disposable income.
- Swinx43 9y agoI highly doubt that all employees are going to be paid that highly. The majority of tech jobs in Berlin does not pay even close to €90k per year. That is the problem with averages. You have a few people earning loads and the rest on much lower income. It would be much better to look at the Median income in Berlin.

People who could be working at FANG are pulling 80+k here amongst the well-funded startups or Siemens etc. Google Munich pays over €100k for their standard dev roles, AFAIK. Zurich is substantially higher, but it's genuinely more expensive.
- derEitel 9y agoNice overview, seems more accurate than most other salary reports. Do you know of a similar one that includes data scientists/ML engineers?
- jashmatthews 9y agoNot that I know of, sorry. I would just check StackOverflow jobs and AngelList for the jobs with salary ranges listed
- collyw 9y agoMunich is a rich city and the cost of living is a lot higher there from what I understand. Its like comparing London to almost anywhere else in the UK.
- collyw 9y agoI think Barcelona sounds worse. You will pay at least that for anywhere reasonably central, and salaries are lower.
