I don’t know about Spain, but when I did some brief research it looks like senior software engineers in the UK make often substantially under £100,000. Away from London even £60,000. Most seniors at my company in the US make about £150,000.
£50-70k of incremental salary pays for a hell of a lot of health insurance premiums and retirement contributions.

- xp84 1y agoI only know Britain because that’s what I researched for my own reasons. But are you suggesting EU salaries are better? And also, that cost of living is like a third of US?? Remember that you can earn $200k working remotely from Ohio. Not just talking absurd SF or Palo Alto rents.
