    Compared to software developer compensation in California, Germany is waaaay cheaper.

    Heck, Munich is cheaper for Google than literally any of their US offices. You would make more by working for Google in Raleigh, North Carolina than in Munich.

    The only European city that pays as well as the US is Zürich. The pay is really good there, about the same as Seattle.

      Sad but true. Munich is extremely expensive for people living there and not owning their homes, which is a large portion of the population and salaries for highly skilled individuals is a complete joke.
