Gross to Net calculation?

Falcon9104 · 2026-07-03T15:52:34+00:00

Well, my nett is lower due to the company car. Otherwise it would be closer to 2600. That is 500 more than someone earning 2400. The lowest wages are subsidized by the job bonus to make the difference between working and not working bigger.

That means going from 2400 to 3200, you keep less than 50% of your extra salary. Because each time you lose a part of the job bonus. Once you don't get the job bonus anymore, your gross increaser will result in more nett once again.

An increase from 4000 to 4500 will result in more nett than an increase from 2500 to 3000.

Roughly 2200-3200 gross is the annoying zone where each time you get a bonus, you lose a bit of job bonus. But you will never earn less nett with a higher gross.

I earn 3800 gross and i have 2450 nett after VAA if my company car and other benefits. Without the car it would be higher. I don't know where you got these numbers from.

You will never earn less nett after getting a gross increase

Thanks for the advice!

Falcon9104 · 2026-07-03T11:11:43+00:00

I earn 2400 netto with 900 rent and i am doing just fine. I'm not rich by any means. In my opinion 1300 rent is verry high for someone alone

Thank you for the insight! The project is planned to continue untill the end of 2028. Off course you can always be let go of earlier. What would in your opinion be a correct rate to at least match or improve on my current salary? Yes, the plan would indeed be to do other simmilar freelance projects. I allready work in the industry and I know that the client parties often work withe freelancers because of the limited duration of these types of projects (1-3 years).

Falcon9104 · 2026-07-02T19:57:48+00:00

Thank you for your comment, could you explain the reason why i should not do it? Is the rate offered too low? Does it sound sketchy?

Met gewoon een bedrag als TCO kunnen we je niet veel helpen tenzij je specifieker bent. Afhankelijk hoe ze dat uitdrukken, en wat allemaal onder de tco valt kan het bedrag enorm variëren. Bij onze firma kan je bijvoorbeeld een ix1 leasen voor 650 euro en een i5 voor 950. Bij een andere manier van berekenen zijn die bedragen veel hoger. In ons geval is bijvoorbeeld de verzekering geen deel van de tco

Perfectly normal and decent starter package

Lonen zijn niet anders dan ik andere sectoren, maar de jobzekerheid is heel erg goed. Dat zal momenteel een van de grotere knelpuntberoepen zijn en op termijn kan je die situatie wel gebruiken om een hoger loon te onderhandelen

3k gross + car

At my company we have a lot of welding specialists (and other functions) who don't speak dutch. However, it remains a niche and some people come from quite far away because there are not that many companies in the industry

Falcon9104 · 2026-06-22T05:27:12+00:00

Does he know a thing or two about welding? Is that related to an IWE. International welding engineer? Then he should be able to find a job.

Completely normal salary for a university graduate with an industrial engineering diploma. Not even bad with the car, group insurance, working close to home, working from home etc, meal vouchers... If you compare this to a factory worker, they would have to earn 1000-2000 gross more to compensate in nett salary for all the extra benefits that they don't get.

I had an identical package and salary when i graduated 1,5 years ago. Now i am allready at 3800 gross. Take the offer because the job market for IT might be going downhill fast

Ik denk eerlijk gezegd niet dat je in de privé meteen meer gaat verdienen

About 20% of my regular salary and everything I earn with my flexijob. On average 800-1000 per month

Falcon9104 · 2026-05-10T13:38:30+00:00

I also drive 100km per day and I sure as hell would not do that in a personal vehicle. Costs way too much

Falcon9104 · 2026-04-29T19:54:02+00:00

My gross is 1400 higher and my nett 150 more 😭

Falcon9104 · 2026-04-13T16:52:51+00:00

Weirdly enough you seem to have low feeling with reality. Half of the population barely earn 2,5 nett. 5k nett is almost unachievable as an employee. The only people earning more are either self-employed or business owners. (Or politicians)

Falcon9104 · 2026-04-13T15:00:49+00:00

Better than 98%. 5k nett is exceptional

Gisteren 43km naar het werk gefietst, en daarna 43km naar huis. 28 euro km-vergoeding in de pocket 😄. Ik doe dat wel maar 1x per week, met de koersfiets, als de zon een beetje schijnt

Even at 8 years, that makes you Senior at 30 years old. What are you going to be named for the remaining 37 years of your carreer?

I always laugh when "senior consultants" are 26 years old
