2022 Global Programmer Salary Ranking is here: China was rated as the lowest-paid country in the world, ranking ninth. Moreover, the difference between the highest annual salary and the lowest annual salary of programmers on the list is US$102,885 (about RMB 700,000). What? ? ? The gap is so big?
In fact, programmers’ annual salary is not only different in different countries, but also different in writing code. Where are these gaps "bad"? Let's take a look at the specific list.
The annual salary of American programmers is nearly 5 times that of China.
In this list, the countries with the highest income of programmers are the United States, Israel and some European countries, among which the annual salary of American programmers has exceeded US$100,000, which is US$110,140 (about RMB 750,000).
It is obvious that China is not on the high-paying list for programmers, but in another list with the lowest salary, you can see that:
ranks ninth, with a specific annual salary of US$23,790 (about RMB 160,000), less than one-quarter of the average annual salary in the United States.
On this lowest ranking list, the last country is Nigeria, with only US$7,255 (about RMB 50,000).
"At the closest point is India", a country where Western companies tend to outsource their technology needs, it is slightly better than Nigeria, with a slight gap, firmly ranked second with an annual salary of $7,725.
From the list, it is not difficult to find that the salary of program employees in Eastern European countries is generally lower than that of Western European countries. In Poland, programmers usually have an annual salary of US$22,740, while in Ukraine, the average annual salary is US$22,348.
It is worth mentioning that programmers’ salaries will be affected to a certain extent by supply and demand.
According to PageGroup data, the countries with the highest demand for programmers are Canada, Australia, Russia, Sweden and New Zealand, and these countries often have higher annual salaries. Programmers’ salaries vary from country to country, and the salary for writing different codes will also vary.
Take the United States as an example. In the United States, writing Go is the most profitable, with an annual salary of US$120,577. Ruby ranked second with $119,558. SQL has the lowest annual salary, only $85,845.
In Switzerland, Germany, France and other countries, the average salary of Java and JavaScript developers is generally low, while Ruby and Golang maintain relatively high salary levels.
In addition to the above mentioned jobs, which means what jobs you do, it is also very important to the programmer's salary. Without further ado, let’s take a look at the statistics in the United States.
Among them, the average salary of developer (development) is US$110,140, the average annual salary of programmers (programming) is US$105,310, and the average annual salary of computer majors is US$91,250.
But compared with other occupations, the salary level of the computer industry is also considered "outstanding". However, after reading the above list, some netizens may ask: Is such a big gap still valuable for reference?
Of course, this list only roughly counts the income level of programmers in various countries, and there are many complex factors that are not mentioned in the list.
For example, there are different positions among programmers, such as grassroots programmers and high-level technical programmers. The technical thresholds of these sub-positions differ greatly from the problems to be solved, and the demands for these positions in different countries are also different.
Therefore, the gap in programmers' salary levels cannot be generalized, and specific issues need to be analyzed in detail.
