So you say 120-160 T€ base salary for good senior developers is normal in Germany? Where’s that, do you have any company names?

I am saying 90K+ for seniors is what I have seen, and 60K+ for juniors. "Normal" is a bit hard to define, and there will always be wide deviations, but the averages, and ranges in that doc just don't match my numbers.

Written offers I got in the last 3 years: M$ - 140K. IBM 120K, 160K & 180K. Amazon 150K Google 80K & 250K (yes, I know :eyeroll:) All their salary bands are public.

A lot of the smaller companies pay extremely well too. And no, not going to give out names, as they are swamped in CVs already.

I am currently at 120K, for 20h per week (2days/3days alternating). Currently hiring for a small startup, and everybody I interviewed asked for 100K+, and that is with shares on top.
