"competitive salary" can mean very different things to different companies in the Amsterdam area.
I wonder what the situation is like here. But given that the lead dev role looks to be on a CTO path, I assume compensation might be heavier in equity?
- davedx 2y agoIn recent years due to the somewhat mixed economy, "competitive salary" in the Netherlands is typically in the 50-70k/year range in my experience (for mid/senior engineers). Salaries and freelance rates have been quite depressed in the last year or two.
- estomagordo 2y agoKinda depressing if that is commonly accepted as competitive.
- davedx 2y agoWell it is competitive with other salaries in the Netherlands. If you don't have a family or want to buy a house then you can live reasonably well here on such a salary. If you have a family or are trying to buy a house though, it can be quite challenging. Median salary for everyone is lower still of course...
- alandarev 2y agoindeed, why anyone would want to be able to buy a house when getting paid a median salary of a professional full-time employee.
- azthecx 2y agoAnecdotally when I moved to the Netherlands I was making 50k and over two years later 70k at that same company with about 4 years of experience. If you look at talent.io tech report and other resources the median tech salary seems to be closer to 60k (70k Amsterdam) for all experience levels, all categories, so with some looking around you can find much better than that.
