Ask HN: Can you make 200k as a software engineer outside US?
1 points by mammamiacomme 2615 days ago
Top level salaries I have seen in Switzerland/London are around 140K CHF or £120k as permanent or 650-700 per day as contractor. That is around 155k USD, which seem a fairly common salary in Bay Area/NYC while it would be a top salary in those 2 markets above. Also the big bonus/shares culture is not as prevalent in Europe.

Anyone here making more than that or knows anyone that does?
