Ask HN: IT Consultants in Australia: What role, what rate are you on?
- tcbasche 4y agoI worked alongside many consultants in Canberra in mostly government agencies and there were a lot of solutions architects and project managers earning roughly $120 an hour pre-tax. The catch was you need to be a citizen obviously to get even a low security clearance, but from memory some agencies were quite lax and didn't bother for baseline clearance.
- brianhorakh 4y agoFrom us, ca. Wife is Australian. Presently down under. I will say that in my experience Apac companies are a special breed of laggard. Im working for a energy trading firm out of the uk as a fullstack software engineer. Pay is competitive w/super annuation (sorry can't disclose), but I took the role because I like the industry and stack +team after interviewing with several dozen prominent au companies that were (in my opinion) really exceptionally bad at software and IT type things.
