This chart must be really confusing for colorblind people.
Respect from fellow employees.
Respect for expert knowledge.Working in IT. This checks out.
Honestly in Germany, the salary is good to great, as all companies and institutions need to catch up 20 years of slept-on advancements and the stability is also good to great for the same reason.
That’s interesting. When I was looking in Europe a few years ago, the pay in Germany for IT tended to be much worse than the USA. I assume QoL and benefits make up for a lot of the gap, but Germany (and Austria, maybe its a Germanic thing?) still seemed noticeably low compared to elsewhere.
Compared to the US the pay may be worse, but compared to the median salary, even entry-level IT jobs pay good.
The median income is about 44k (last year), my first job ever paid 57k fresh out of university (about 5 years ago). It may be less than other countries, but I never had to think about money and even did my own thing for a year, living entirely off my savings. I could comfortable do this after just 3 years of work.
So, yeah, compared to your average German, working in IT, you’re rich.
Bullshit, salary is still good
Depends on where you are.
