Why don't I strap on my job helmet, and squeeze down into a job cannon, and fire off into job land where $150k salaries are just ripe for the picking.
I'm trying to find a kick ass salary, I'm great at what I do, but the only place I can find such high salaries are contracts in Switzerland. $180k - $225k.
What kind of frontend/uiux jobs are out there for $150k~?
- kevinnk 12y agoHigh end at Google for UI designer is ~160k according to Glassdoor. That's in line with what I've heard from friends as well. UI design does have lower salaries than other types of software development, in some cases much lower, so I doubt you're going to be getting 150k+ unless you're pretty senior.
- EC1 12y agoThe thing is I'm not just frontend. I build product from A-Z. I can ideate it, build a strategy, a business plan, mock it, design it, code it, deploy it, market it. What role should I be looking for? I'm great at stepping back and looking at it from the bigger picture instead of hammering out details. Should I be looking for project management roles? Product designer? Art director? I have no idea.
- EpicEng 12y agoFront end devs are a dime a dozen. I'm not saying that they're all very good at what they do, far from it, but you also have to consider that a company's bottom line is not necessarily negatively impacted by hiring an average performer in that area. It helps to have skills which are more rare and, as such, demand more compensation.
- mamcx 12y agoYeah, is not easy. Also, elsewhere is far different. In my country (Colombia) US 15.000/year is the media. If I could get US 80.000/year? I will very happy...
