These salaries sound astronomical compared to earning potential in UK companies. As an Architect, average salaries are around £64,000. Does anyone know how like for like roles pay in the UK for US companies? I can't see Amazon paying £200k for a software developer?
- falsedan 8y agoNot in salary, no, but total comp would be in that ballpark 1998 - 2006 Uni CSO work AUD$20k - $50k 2007 - 2009 £24k in London 2010 - 2014 £20 - £30k not in London 2014 - 2016 USD$135k + $30k stock (averaged) 2017 - 2018 £65k + $50k stock 2019 £58k
- salarythrow250 8y agoI have colleagues that work in the UK office of my US headquartered employer that are making £200k+ having worked there for ~10 years.
- dev-thrwy-593 8y agoThat figure must be for outside London, no? Since there aren't too many UK salaries here I'll add mine for London, all in GBP: - 2006-2009 45-60k Employee, US investment bank, Analyst - 2010-2012 300/day Freelance, full stack web dev - 2013-2017 105k Employee, tech lead at a startup - 2018-2019 700/day Contractor, Senior Python Developer
- stats111 8y agoIt's a UK wide average. Specific industries like banking will pay a markup. Also expect a 15-20% higher pay in London due to increased living costs.
- dev-thrwy-593 8y agoBanking pays poorly compared to tech roles at private equity and hedge funds. Even losing out to Silicon Roundabout and even sleepy Whitehall at the moment, though it is all fairly volatile. I suppose trying to work at any of the smaller FAANG offices in London might be the best you can do in the UK?
