    Avg Dev salary in the UK is £40-60k which is $43-65k. If your really good you can get 80-100k in London but you need to be genius level. This equates to about $88-110k a year. London is more expensive than Seattle! So new graduates at Microsoft are making more than top level senior Veterans in the UK. That's crazy!!

      @@ersandy4u Its competition honestly. You don't give me what I"m asking for, no problem. I'll stay while I look for another and likely will land one easily. Its why these big tech give so much perks besides big compensation such as free breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks and unlimited drinks all day as long as you're in the office. Anything to show their appreciation and in return they hope you would be more dedicated to your role instead of just the I only work here mentality. And if after all these you're still unhappy then you're not the right fit. Happy employees are more productive.

    AHHH. I'm dying over this woman's explanation on how she requested a raise. She noticed that salaries were 15% higher than what she was making, but she thought they wouldn't give her that, so she decided to ask for 11 and they replied with 7. It would've been totally reasonable for her to ask for 15 and they probably would've come back with 11. I hate that this was given as a good strategy because it's actually an example of how women negotiate themselves down when they ask for something, only to get negotiated down further. She deserved 15% just to be on par with what others were making, but instead she's still behind.

    Damn. Starting salaries have gone up a lot. Inflation, I guess. When I was there circa 2010, I got hired at a senior level (SDE 63 I think-not a noob) at something between 130k and 140k with I think 10k signing bonus and a 20k stock grant (not sure, memory is fuzzy). These entry-level people are coming in at my old salary. It's either inflation, or MS is doing better or being more generous than it was at the time.
    Fun seeing you walking around Studios though. I miss MS, though the culture was really cutthroat at the time and I don't miss that at all. People would do their best to throw you under the bus to make sure they fared well in the stack-ranked reviews. It was kind of a nightmare.

    I've been offered a very nice role at a pretty big entertainment/tech company on a graduate scheme which goes into a full time job after 7 months(training and everything). The role starts next year which I am super excited about but the one thing I regret is not negotiating the salary when I got the call with the job offer. I didn't apply to too many companies by that time and I just felt super lucky and blessed to land a pretty nice relatively well-paying job (especially at my age) and got super excited and just said yes to the offer with no negotiation especially because I was of the notion that they would revoke my offer if I ask for a pay increase.
    What I was told however is after the graduate scheme is over and you convert into a full time rule, there is a salary increase so I hope to show the company my worth and ask for a nice pay rise after those 7 months though! Wish me luck everyone :D
