Everything is relative of course, but can you back up your claim with some numbers?

Where do you live? What salaries and compensation packages are you seeing?

Well, ok, I guess it's not that grim. Still, it's a pretty crappy job.

Surprised me seeing Scala in there, thought it was basically dead now. My last experience with seeing it in a codebase and using (or trying to use) SBT, I was kind of hoping it was.

If you had your choice, would you do something else? Like being in finance or becoming a dentist?
