- ryanburk 12y agoyou should assume ~200k for an engineer in a market like seattle
- 72deluxe 12y agoIn what languages? Obviously location is important but I am writing C++ on multiple platforms in the UK and $200k is far away.
- bmj 12y agoI don't believe the parent is referring to the salary of the employee, but rather the overall cost to the company for that employee.
- 72deluxe 12y agoAhhh thanks! That's a relief. Mighty expensive employing someone though. Thanks again.
- ryanburk 12y agothis. what a company budgets for the average full cost of an employee per year. so someone who makes $100k and someone who makes $225k in their own salary all average out to $200k when you take salary cost + insurance costs, 401k, perks, overhead, etc.
- jbn 12y agoWell, isn't this going to drop if the market is suddenly flooded with people looking for work? Tough situation for anyone getting laid off.
