Normal software engineers make that in Sydney and Melbourne. You need to negotiate a higher salary or switch jobs.
- gambiting 6y agoAs I explained in other comments, salaries that high don't exist in the UK. And you can't just negotiate to have your salary be double the market rate where you live, no matter how good you are. Also, isn't Sydney the most expensive place to live in the world? My mortgage where I live is £600/month for an actual house, what good does making 2x the money give me if I have to pay 4x the money for rent?
