If someone says something about the salaries explicitly they have numbers in mind and theories on how they should map. That's what I was after, and it's what I got. I think your stance that an average salary does not exist is nonsense, especially if you look at averages for seniority levels in relatively wealthy areas (which the entirety of Japan is).

- midoridensha 3y agoMy stance is that an "average salary" is pointless because the range is simply too wide and depends on too many factors to condense into a 1-sentence reply. Also, the entirety of Japan isn't relatively wealthy, just like the US. The rural areas are dramatically cheaper to live in (for housing mainly) than the big cities. However, there's less "spread" than in the US: all the software jobs are going to be in a handful of large cities, not in some remote prefecture or village (whereas in the US, there are jobs in some smaller and even very small cities, where that one employer is likely the only place you can get such a job nearby and you'll have to move if the job goes bad). But even if you just look at Tokyo, the pay range can be enormous, at least a full order of magnitude.
