One thing I often see, I guess similar to game industry, the "cooler" the job the crappier the salary. E.g. automotive or avionics software gets written in Italy or Spain, paying (annual) 38K Euros to senior devs. Roller-coaster control software company in Argentina paying even less. I also often see such engineers moving into CRUD/PHP/JS for a much better pay.
