I don't know how expensive Sweeden is, but that $200k salary generally comes with rent of $2000-$3000 for a small one bedroom. Large swaths of Silicon Valley have average home prices well over $1 million USD.
And the tech sector here has excellent benefits relative to non-tech, but they still probably don't even come close to your country. 3-4 weeks paid vacation a year plus a few national holidays, 6-8 weeks paid parental leave. There are outliers that offer more, but generally aren't common.
