    I know this is a touchy subject but I think it would be great to get an idea of the kind of money software developers are making for specific types of jobs in different parts of the world. I guess if there's ever been a reason to respond as Anonymous, this is it! Take advantage of it to given an honest answer to the following 4 questions: 1. In what location of the world do you work? Since salaries vary greatly in different parts of the world, it'd be nice to match the money with the location. 2. What kind of programming are you doing? Is it VC++, VB, ASP, Java, C, HTML, Oracle, etc? And is it complex or pretty straightforward? 3. How much are you getting payed? Tell it like it is: if it's hourly, give the rate; if it's annually, give the salary. Please give the amount in US dollars to make it easy to compare. 4. How many hours/week do you typically work? This is more to give an idea of your total income. For example, a person who makes $60/hr and works an average of 40 hrs/week makes more than one who makes $100/hr but only puts in 20 hrs/week. Also, the number of hours helps to determine how much a salaried person is making per hour (i.e., if you make $100,000/year and work 50 hrs/week, your hourly rate comes out to about $38). Thanks for your input! Regards, Alvaro

                            Due to a poor AU$, I make about $20k US, work about 50-70 hours ( unpaid overtime, I could work 40 as everyone else here does with no complaint from management ), doing VC++ MFC graphics stuff and whatever else comes along ( interface stuff, printing, scanning, etc. ) I'm also the office manager ( i.e. lots of horrid paperwork when I'd rather be coding ). Christian The content of this post is not necessarily the opinion of my yadda yadda yadda. To understand recursion, we must first understand recursion.

                              I'm a college student in Chihuahua, Mexico (200 miles south of the border with the US). I've been programming as a hobby for more than 8 years (I learned QuickBasic when I was 10), and I have worked as a freelancer developing small projects for about a year (using VB to reduce time, since they all had to be very user friendly). I know C/C++, MFC, VB, Java, HTML/Javascript/VBScript, ASP and a bit of x86 Assembler (not useful anymore 99.999% of the time). Since I work part time, I only work about 15 hrs a week, and I get paid about US$15 per hour (low, isn't it?). -- LuisR -------- Luis Alonso Ramos Chihuahua, Mexico www.luisalonsoramos.com

                                I know this is a touchy subject but I think it would be great to get an idea of the kind of money software developers are making for specific types of jobs in different parts of the world. I guess if there's ever been a reason to respond as Anonymous, this is it! Take advantage of it to given an honest answer to the following 4 questions: 1. In what location of the world do you work? Since salaries vary greatly in different parts of the world, it'd be nice to match the money with the location. 2. What kind of programming are you doing? Is it VC++, VB, ASP, Java, C, HTML, Oracle, etc? And is it complex or pretty straightforward? 3. How much are you getting payed? Tell it like it is: if it's hourly, give the rate; if it's annually, give the salary. Please give the amount in US dollars to make it easy to compare. 4. How many hours/week do you typically work? This is more to give an idea of your total income. For example, a person who makes $60/hr and works an average of 40 hrs/week makes more than one who makes $100/hr but only puts in 20 hrs/week. Also, the number of hours helps to determine how much a salaried person is making per hour (i.e., if you make $100,000/year and work 50 hrs/week, your hourly rate comes out to about $38).

                                1. San Diego, CA 2. C++, MFC, Sybase, Windows CE. 3. $65K salary + overtime 4. 40-60 hrs depending upon the situation. Small company -- 3 programmers in house, and I'm the only C++ guy, others are Delphi. I'm developing an application for CE that interfaces w/ our company's (industry specific) office management software(accounting/payroll/inventory/dispatching, etc). Most of it's fairly straigtforward, but there are some trickier things, plus there are alot of hoops to jump through to write useful things for windows CE...such as having to roll my own database classes to work w/ ODBC on CE(using Sybase)..had to crawl slowly before I could crawl faster I guess. I've about 4 years experience now. It's my fist programming job... I started @ 25K anually before I had finished 1 1/2 years of college. Went to school nights to finish degree, got a few raises in the meantime. I feel like I'm on the never-ending project...."this feature is coming soon"... job security I guess. I saw a post here where someone commented "Marketing sells features that don't exist, and expects programming to cover" Have truer words ever been written to an online forum?

                                    In what location of the world do you work? Sweden (northern Europe) What kind of programming are you doing? C++, MFC, STL, some COM, some C. Some is complex, some is pretty straightforward. I am doing a lot of communications stuff, mostly TCP/UDP sockets. How much are you getting payed? Monthly, around $2400 US. A crappy bonus system gives me ~5% on top of that. I was offered to *buy* stock options, and as it seems right now I will *loose* some $2000 on that deal... :-( How many hours/week do you typically work? 40 (on average) Yes, I know this sucks. The problem is that it is almost impossible to get a decent salary in Sweden. I am considered to be relatively well payed here. (27 years old, 3 years experience, Bs.EE degree) I am *very* open to job offers from other countries, and I really have a soft spot for the Los Angeles/Santa Barbara/San Fransisco area....
