I know several people just out of college that earn 50k in Bucharest or Cluj, not after 10 years. The salaries increased a lot in the past 5 years, but still 120k is extremely rare, above director level for employee type of contracts.

That's impressive! 120k is a medium level contract in the UK, at least for my background, so I am technically speaking ... cheap. In Romania, from what I gather, a director can mean a low level manager. Pretty soon the market will adjust and learn that they are not worth the money. CTO/CEO director levels, yes. Experienced Product Managers that actually drive the product, sure. But management that does nothing but crack the whip and demand to be addressed as "dumneavoastra" to inflate their egos are a dying breed.

people "just out of college" earn a lot more than someone with 20 years experience, in tech here. In fact, there is straight discrimination against people over 30 in many tech shops in the USA.
