"Is embedded development really that poorly paid?"
At least in Belgium and the Netherlands it is, yes. I've interviewed a few times for roles like that, and they were always poorly paid and very depressing looking (like one guy beaming 'this will be your workspace!', pointing to an ancient pc on the edge of a lab table with a chair with holes in it. I think since the electronics guys didn't have chairs, that was the comfy position in the company?)
- Rinzler89 8y agoDo you have any idea why embedded got so poorly paid?
- roel_v 8y agoThey seem to get lumped in with the EE guys, for whom just like the MechEng guys there are wholly different salary expectations (probably a supply/demand thing). I guess in embedded companies, software is just a necessary annoyance.
