Pretty sure in big tech hubs like London, Amsterdam, Dublin, senior engineers make at least this much. Probably more. I can only offer my experience from London, not sure about other places but for sure there you can make over 100k as senior engineer.

$80k is just under €70k, which is very possible for senior engineers in Berlin.

Idk I'm in NL and senior managers make this easily.

> retirement is included

I’m not holding my breath for my European government retirement benefit to actually be useful in thirty years, to be honest.

Those SF-based servers are getting every one of benefits.

Engineers outside of American tech centers are generally highly underpaid.
