Is your salary a “marketing number” just because taxes are taken out?

  What salary? Seriously though, the main difference is the headline figure vs. the nominal payout. (Almost 50% difference). Then there's tax, which in many countries (not the US) would be nearly 50% again.

  In many countries, salaries for jobs are discussed as the amount you get after the taxes are taken out.

    How does that work? In most places I've lived and worked, the amount you get taxed is quite variable based on a ton of factors... does this mean they have flat income taxes?
