Tbf in EU tech salaries are...underwhelming. And before you mention it, no, my insurance costs (which are minimal) do not justify the $90000 or so pay gap in similar position in the similar branch of the company between Spain or US that I was being offered.

When I was interviewing post-graduation in Uk and Germany I consistently got offers between 27 and 50k Euros/Quid. That imho, was too low compared to what companies in US were willing to pay me.

Sometimes no, sometimes yes. 6 weeks of paid vacation, [p|m]aternity leave and heavily subsidized kindergartens etc can weigh heavier than extra pay, depending on your priorities in life.
