The data source for this visualization comes from [Levels.fyi](https://levels.fyi/) data points for 2024. We took all the data points for a country and used the 25th – 75th percentiles to create the displayed range. The markers in the midst of each range indicate the 50th percentile (median).
The tools used were Metabase, Tableau, and Photopea.

A bit hard to tell which bar is for which country when the bars are far away from the y axis. Good data tho!

I think this needs to be adjusted by cost of living because when homes cost millions and a meal for like $30-40 without tips, that salary isn’t as comfortable as one may think.

This makes no sense. I have seen dozens of Sankey diagrams of software engineers making 500k and more over the last couple of months alone. Where do you get your data from? And, more importantly, who is lying?
Edit: not a single software engineer I’ve seen on here made less than 400k/y.

One thing about Brazil is that a lot of the time some bonus are not counted as normal salary, i.e., health plan and end of the year bonus can make your compensation on par with 100k…

I’m curious what this would look like if you somehow adjusted for skill level.
The US pays very well overall, but part of that is due to the incredible talent level of engineers being attracted from overseas.
I didn’t feel dumb until I worked with Sr Engineers from IIT, Tsinghua, etc.

I then quickly felt very dumb.
