some rough numbers from last year... very senior tech role - fully remote :
* London : >100k pounds = ~120k E
* Berlin : >90k E
* Sofia : >50k E
but, when applying the taxes thereof:
* London : >120k E - 45% taxes -> 66k E
* Berlin : >90k E - 45% taxes -> 50k E
* Sofia : >50k E - 10-15% taxes -> 45k E
Which means.. it mostly depends where you (want to) live.. as differences in price/culture of life are much more than above differences.

- aix1 5y agoI haven't checked the other two numbers, but your UK tax calculation is off. A more accurate after-tax number (applying correct income tax bands and national insurance) is €80K.
- heavenlyblue 5y agoYour calculation is way off, UK taxes are progressive but you don't just get a 45% once you reach the threshold - otherwise there would be salaries where it would be better to earn less than slightly more. Here, the calculation: https://listentotaxman.com/?year=2021&taxregion=uk&married=false&blind=false&exni=false&marriageallowance=false&partnerwage=0&plan=&age=0&extra=0&taxcode=&pension=&time=1&ingr=100000 https://listentotaxman.com/?year=2021&taxregion=uk&married=f... 120K EUR is 79.7K E PS: Also 120K EUR in the UK is NOT very senior.
