An influencer is selling a course to people learn to be developer and he said that the value in the screenshoot is his income at spotify as senior android engineer. Does senior devs at spotify germany receives 12k net salary per month? Update: the income is real, its his gross salary (145k euros TC) in Germany, he moved to Portugal, so he receives the gross salary and need to pay the taxes himself. People in Brazil (his target audience) usually receives net salaries, so this can be a little confusing and make people think that the real salary is even higher.
I suspect he is lying
This doesn't seem crazy high? At least in tier 1 cities in the US which typically are on par with Europe? Are you saying this is too high or too low?
Too high! Based on salaries for his role on sites like glassdoor.
It could be annual bonus too
Makes more sense! But he gives the impression that it's his salary, I think it's to impress people and get more students.
I used to work at Spotify in Sweden. They offer no bonuses, that I know of.
If it’s not fake then it includes his bonus as well. I remember showing my friends a check which was 30K and told them it’s my monthly salary lol
Lol I also lie
Wait - you all aren’t getting paid $30k+ per month?
Spotify doesn’t pay any bonus
the cash retention awards are pretty much bonuses
The thing that makes this unbelievable is that its germany
It’s not that unbelievable…
12k net salary in Germany means around 20k gross. Pretty unbelievable.
Gmbh is a German company. Spotify isn’t German.
He was working for Spotify in Berlim (there is an office there), now he moved to Porto. he probably gets his salary from the German subsidiary.
If he moved to Porto then he's not paying German taxes anymore and probably registered as a freelancer. 12k is pre-taxes, that's around 7k after tax in Germany which is great but not uncommon if you work for US companies.
Influencers should be illegal
I would rather say he is contracting and that is a gross amount. My monthly paycheques in UK looked even bigger when I was contracting. You still need to pay all the taxes though…
i make $10k after taxes in america, i guess its not impossible to get 12k euro. If i messed with my withholdings i could hit that probably.
