I think a percentage comparison between the median net income in your country vs your net income would be more telling than an absolute dollar value. It doesn't matter how much you make as much as how much money you keep from what you make

Damn, I'm a trainee ... so my salary is about $6500 /year
Goodbye and thanks for the fish!

Hey - we've all been there. I worked part-time as a programmer through college in the early 80's. I was paid from $5.50 to $8.10 an hour during that period. I made my employer a ton of money, since they routinely charged our clients $40-$50 per hour for my time.

He's showing off, that's all.
His real income might be between 15 and 20 US$.

my guess would be a senior systems architect or project manager. Probly not your average developer role...

Okay, work with me here - I am looking at these numbers and can't believe how low they are.
I don't live in the USA - but I am a USA citizen with work from the USA (and other countries). Yes, I am in the bracket that you think is unreal (100,000+)
But I know quite a few people who are close to that, if not in that range.
I just develop now - but I have been a Director and a Chief Architect.
My work is specialized and I have more than 20 years of experience too.

I'm sat on a table of people who all earn that kind of figure.
20 years experience, typical job titles are Solutions Architect/Technical Architect/etc. If fact several of them are in the >£100,000 bracket. (Which is about $160,000 or so).
You have to work for your money but the renumeration can be very good.

"And the Oscar goes to" !? Any MS-Pro in here? For high skilled programmers this salary shouldn't be a real problem. Go evolving yourself stating out that you are the one for the job and i guess you get the job earning even more than 200000 $

From what I've heard, MS is not really a high-salary sort of company - they do pay you well I suppose, but there are companies that pay higher than MS.

It really depends on the region of the US also. As a Architect in south Florida it is easy to make 150k.

Salaries highly vary from country to country.
For e.g. in Bangalore (India) US$ 20K is very good while in Newyork (USA) it is very less

Thats what I wanted to say, you came first.
I am convinced that this poll should be splitted into country or continents to give a better view.

The survey title is for 'US';P

First of all, the question isn't clear.
Salary before or after tax+insurance?
That's a huge difference of nearly 50%.
Let's assume "salary" means "what you really get". The same number of US$ is something completly different in different countries. How long can you live of 40.000 US$ in the US, in India, in Europe? That's why I'd like to group the results by voter's location.

That's actually something I didn't think about. In the UK salaries are always expressed gross (before tax, national insurance, etc. are deducted)

In germany salaries are often expressed as pay levels, you have to look up the actual sum in the collective labour agreement. I don't have time to do that at the moment, I only know how much EUR arrives on my bank account - that's "salary minus tax minus insurance".

I don't think it should be grouped by country. People in India, China and Romania should know that they are getting 10% of what people elsewhere are getting! Else they'll be living in a fool's paradise of sorts

...also we in the U.S. should know that we're paying 1000% for the same amenities that people in India, China and Romania are paying. Talk about "fool's paradise"...;P
Whatever
