The situation in Canada changed a lot in the past 2-3 years. It used to be that hearing about people making 200k mid-career in Canada was rare, now it's becoming more common. You're still taking a ~25% pay cut compared to the US. It really depends though, if you work for a large US company in Canada you are far better off than working for a Canadian company. > Well, seniors can make like 70-80k€ where I live, which is like the 3rd percentile in my country. Still true though, the salaries are not great compared to the US. That also means you have no room for growth. In the US 200k/year would put you in the 10th percentile for household income. You have plenty of room to build up from there. The thing about the EU is that not only are salaries low, the ceiling is also low.
