Understanding Global Salaries
💼 What This Data Shows
These are average monthly after-tax salaries for mid-level professionals with 3-7 years of experience across four major sectors: technology, healthcare, education, and finance. Actual salaries vary based on specific job titles, company size, city location, and individual qualifications.
🌍 Why Salaries Differ
Salary levels reflect each country's economy, cost of living, tax systems, and labor market conditions. A software engineer earning different amounts in different countries can have similar quality of life when local costs are factored in. Raw numbers don't tell the whole story about purchasing power.
📊 Using This Information
Salary data can be useful for understanding market rates across different professions and locations. Combine this with our cost of living calculator to see what any salary actually buys in a specific location. This data is for informational purposes only — not financial or career advice.
Industry Sectors Explained
Technology
Covers software engineers, developers, data scientists, and IT professionals. Tech salaries are generally highest globally due to strong demand and specialized skills. Major tech hubs offer premium compensation but also higher living costs.
Healthcare
Includes doctors, nurses, and medical professionals. Healthcare salaries vary based on system structure - private systems often pay more than universal healthcare systems. Medical education costs and malpractice insurance also affect compensation levels.
Education
Covers teachers and educators in public and private schools. Teacher salaries reflect government funding priorities and education system structure. Some countries value teaching as a professional career, while others underfund education relative to other sectors.
Finance
Includes banking, accounting, and financial services professionals. Finance salaries are highest in major financial centers like London, New York, and Singapore. Regional variation is significant - roles in financial hubs pay much more than similar positions elsewhere.
