Is DB2 Admin more productive than Java dev on the same seniority?
What about countries? In my Poland $25k would be an amazing salary for a senior while in USA fresh grads can earn $80k. Are they more productive?
... at the same time, given same seniority, job and location - I'd be willing to say it wouldn't be a bad heuristic.
- ido 1y agoIt doesn't undermine your point, but if you mean gross yearly wage $25k is not an amazing salary for senior software developers in Poland (I guess it depends where in Poland).
- StefanBatory 1y agoSorry, a typo - ought have been $35k. 10k PLN monthly would be a very good salary - and also perhaps a norm, as far as I know from experience and talking to peers.
- mathverse 1y ago$25k was not an amazing salary for senior in 2016. Thats a ridiculous take. Most seniors in CEE are at least on 50k euros.
- tomcam 1y agoI find Poles to be among the very best, but it may be a bias in the sample. Most of the ones I know were motivated enough to move to the States for awesome jobs.
- ido 1y agoI worked with and known a bunch of Polish devs (in Poland), certainly a very high quality talent pool. There are also great devs in Romania and a lot of the countries that were part of former-Yugoslavia. I never understood how there can be a significant wage gap between these countries and Western Europe for jobs that are anyway done online.
