- Levitz 5y agoThere ain't no welfare state on heaven or earth that makes enough of a difference for new grads to earn 14-18k yearly (before tax). Good afternoon from Spain.
- darebak 5y agoHa, I actually have an Italian colleague who moved to Easter Europe(Slovakia) which I found surprising at first but then I discovered that Spain and Italy are comparable on salaries but have higher cost of living.
- mrisoli 5y agoSpain salaries can be ridiculous, there has certainly been a boom and some startups are paying well for senior roles as competition heats up, but I consistently get recruiters pinging me with 30-40k openings for senior positions.
- ekianjo 5y ago> … until you take into account everything covered by welfare states. You mean the services that barely work half the time?
- nivenkos 5y agoThe salaries are lower before taxes though.
- cvak 5y agoNo, they are lower, and on top of that, they are taxed more.
