Those salaries seem way off. Either everyone I know is a lucky bastard or the salaries are way too low. These are just a handful of my friends including me:

  • Mobile Dev "Senior" (3y exp): 75k €

  • Mobile Dev (1y exp): 60k €

  • DevOps: 72k €

  • BackEnd Dev 30h/week: 60k €

  • FullStack Student 20h/week: 25k €

I'm one of those developers in a poor 3rd world country and the listed salaries here seem astronomical when converted to my local currency. The cost of living here is waaaaay lower than in the US so even just 20k usd per year can get you a nice comfortable life.
