I fell for the CS meme

>unlimited PTO
Biggest meme of all, opens the door to all kinds of abuse.
>"oh hey boss I was thinking of taking one week off"
>"user, you know we really need you and we have tons of work, I expected better from you"
You need at least a mandatory minimum amount of PTO in your contract

>americans get 70k starting
>meanwhile in Western Europe we get 30k and get told we're lucky
And they wonder why they can't find enough developers. Even a paper pusher makes almost as much

That's after tax right?

After all taxes it would be closer to 26k a year, at least in France - and that's considered "pretty good"

>make 70k a year
>get shot
>get $1m in debt from hospital expenses
Yup, America sure is great!

Www.yearup org

>didn't go to college
>earn in the top 10%
>work remote

Wew Life is great and I'm grateful for the tech industry.

The truth is, working when young in USA is a great deal, because it's unlikely you will need medical care and you don't have kids too so no need to pay for any education, thanks to this taxes are low and you get the money
In Europe where I live, it's great when you're older (free health care) and have kids (free education) but when you're young you pay all the taxes and get none of the benefits because no kids, no big need for healthcare and not receiving welfare.
Ideally I would work in USA until 30 or so, when I get kids, I go back to Europe for free education and stronger welfare system in case shit happens

Kek. CS kids are treated like rockstars in the US. But sure, enjoy your healthcare

I can't tell if this is an American posting what is essentially satire or if europoors are actually this delusional. Most Americans are aware of which demographic is the primary perpetrator AND victim of shootings and basically self-segregate. The few fools who aren't aware learn their lesson quickly and if they don't survive their friends and family do.
