Ask HN: How much do Software Engineers make in your city?

1 pointtzz2 comments

Recently, there was some discussions about how little developers make in Austrian. Out of curiosity, how much do Software Engineers make in your city?

Example: In Silicon Valley, average salary is between $110,000 - $120,000. Entry level position is between $75,000 - $90,000.

In Atlanta, GA USA, I would say entry level is around 55-65k for good engineers.

Some schools provide data publicly, ie: http://www.adors.gatech.edu/commencement/salary_report_resul...

In London, England, I think the modal average is £40,000–50,000 (that's about $65,000–80,000 in US dollars).

Entry level is about £30,000 (US$48,600).

This is just based on my own experience looking at job ads. My impression might be skewed a bit (perhaps those ads that don't specify a salary tend to be for higher-paid roles, I don't know).
