Without wanting to sound disrespectful, most of the engineers outside US and some EU countries, get paid a lot less from what you’re used to and from what you read in major tech sites.
I know a lot of good engineers in many countries (Greece, Croatia, south-east EU, India...) that get paid less than 9$/hr (myself included).
The bad thing with all the big companies outsourcing positions and working with external partners is that it’s difficult to distinguish the good engineers from the copy-paste developers, self-taught coders and really bad engineers that give some countries a bad name.
I have first hand experience of really bad engineers, working for top companies, who get paid low wages and don’t care about the quality of their work.
I guess that’s how the system works...
