Google in Switzerland my friend.

Or generally contract work in Switzerland.

This year for a brief, beautiful moment(two months) I was making 750CHF daily before taxes.

Regular, experienced employees can count on 100k+ before taxes.

As a freelancer in Paris, I've been invoicing 625€ daily in 2018 and 2019, and 700€ in 2020, doing Big Data / Scala development with a sprinkle of devops, for the same customer. I think I could get 800-900€ if I find a customer that pays better and focus on the Big Data / GCP sectors. Just need to find a contract through word of mouth, and not through a recruiter that takes a 100-150€ margin...

You get less as a salaried employee in France though...
