That sounds ...very low, right? Given that it will be very easy to get twice that(and more) in northern Europe.

- schnitzelstoat 4y agoYep - the decent companies tend to pay like €60-70k though. It's really bimodal, like in OP's post. The big multinationals tend to pay decent wages and the others pay a pittance.
- franciscop 4y agoWell yes, and no, in most cities in Spain* with 35k€ you would probably be in the top 5-10%. Average salary in many cities is 15-20k€, so with 35k€ you'd be relatively very well off. Of course compared to international dev salaries it's low, but that's not relevant for all. As a funny data point, my first salary ever as a developer in Valencia, Spain was 12k €/year (6k € part time), and I was very happy with it since it was while I was in college so it was all for fun and savings. Some day I should share my salary evolution, it's just crazy. *I'd say on average if you exclude Madrid/Barcelona
- leke 4y agoI make about 24K euros a year after tax in Finland as a (full stack-ish) PHP dev. It's my 3rd year at the company. Is that a bit low then?
- jacquesm 4y agoYes. Shop around. Hint: you could probably double that.
- yrgulation 4y agoYou are better off in east europe to be honest.
- yrgulation 4y agoYou can get more than 35k in east europe. South europe is not much tech developed and pay is indeed low. In northern europe you get more but pay more in tax so its not really much higher.
