Polish salaries are maybe not SV high but they are climbing. $100k USD/year plus for a contract engineer. Not cheap.

  The number my friend got was considerably less than that. Very concerning. Of course this is all hearsay. I don't know how real that figure is, but it's not particularly inspiring so I don't see why would anyone lie about it.

    The comment above mentions a contract engineer, so a consultant, presumably. Maybe the salaries are lower for regular employees.

      Yeah can’t comment for local employees of local companies. Just have knowledge of UK & US companies hiring/outsourcing to Poland. It was cheap, not so much anymore.

  Did you calculate in the weak Zloty into that sum?

    remote contractor == likely paid in USD

      Exactly.

    If PLN depreciates against USD (as it has this year) and the contract is USD denominated (which is simpler for Google so likely the case) then you'll have actually received a gradual payrise!

      Google in Poland doesn't pay in USD. Why would you think they want simpler solutions?
