Exactly. That’s around salary for senior engineer at big corp according union tables in Germany. If you’re really good or a manager, 110k is in there. More is doable at senior manager/director level or in key position in a company led by owner. US faang salaries sound here like science fiction.

Yes, 90 to 110k is pretty much TOP. A lot of seniority and experience. If you want to go higher, you have to go management path (even lower management is included in the union)

If you look at the table of salaries of a big union [1], you can multiply that number by about 13.5 to get the annual salary. Can vary a little %, but a good estimation.

The salaries in the EU stagnated in the last years, whereas in USA they were moving.
