A headhunter approached me for an SAS presales engineer position and offered me in USD $60,000 base salary as a 5th year experienced hire. i told them that is lower than our current first year new grad salary. He was so surprised ans asked me to show him my income proof... What is Tokyo salary range? this seems like ridiculously low. Headhunters in Tokyo is like BS
My TC is 200k in Tokyo with 7 YOE and that’s pretty much unheard of here for a dev. I’ve heard of a 220k position at Amazon but that’s it. That said, 60k is lower than a new grad at western investment bank in Tokyo. I think that recruiter just doesn’t have a lot of experience.
Please elaborate on where in Tokyo is such a TC possible
Hedge fund.
My friend’s brother makes that much as a senior backend engineer in Tokyo. Great place to live if you are not a “salary man”.
Omg.. that is insane..
Yea might as well work remote.
