Really? Even if they're accurate I feel like I should be going to Switzerland asap.

As I commented elsewhere: when you see how much the rent for a small apartment is, and prices in the supermarkets, you may change options.
They're from levels.fyi, and if you look at Switzerland, something like 20% of all salaries are from Google employees. 100-110k is probably a better number.

I kinda disagree with other posters, even after CoL adjustments you're way ahead in Switzerland, especially given the usually low taxes. RE is totally unaffordable though, the rest is fine.

The pay in Switzerland is because of cost of living, mostly food, apartments.
I'd like to see a version of this in PPP for that reason. Or adjusted by median rents.
