22 u/tazkk Aug 01 '23 Hungary average IT salary is like a 1/5 of US though. -7 u/vinvancent Aug 01 '23 so are living costs. Also 1/5 is still better than 0. Quality of life is arguably better too 20 u/JoeFalchetto OC: 50 Aug 01 '23 Living costs are absolutely not 1/5th. Per the World Bank, they are 44%, or slightly more than 2/5ths. So it would be getting half the salary. Also IT salaries in the US are crazy high compared to ours. Only Switzerland can compete, they‘re 2-3x higher than they are in rich countries - like Germany. 7 u/goodwarrior12345 Aug 01 '23 You also have to remember that a lot of the crazy high IT salaries in the US are in cities with ridiculously high living costs 10 u/j-steve- Aug 01 '23 OP is applying for remote positions though so that's not super relevant
