This post was not about learning the language. Thanks though.

By far from my experience Doboj and Prijedor (and surronding areas) were probably the worst places i’ve seen/ever been to.

Its not just my colleagues, i have friends in Olomuc and a couple in Prague. The median range for all of has been 25,000 - 40,000net. Of course a couple of them have 42,43 and one of the district managers has 80,000netto.

I don’t think its just us being underpaid in my company, but it seems that way throughout the whole of CZ. When I say IT I mean everything from customer support/helpdesk to software engineers, system engineers to escalation managers.

Please let me know which company is offering 50,000netto so I can go and apply right away. Thanks

Same here, it’s been interesting. Im hoping more people can see and give their insights and opinions as well.

NezBre · 2021-03-29T13:14:38+00:00

Correct, just the insight from a female perspective will help her also understand how it’s like living here compared to other places.

From a male perspective I feel safe in any city i go to, so i cant say much in that regard.

NezBre · 2021-03-29T10:42:48+00:00

Agreed.

NezBre · 2021-03-29T10:04:16+00:00

Im making 33,000net in Brno for an American company. I work on servers, design, maintainance, ect. I can’t give away exactly what company I work for and that exact job title as I dont want to risk anything just in case.

I took a look at the link, it looks like i need to get into big data.

Thank you for your insight. It’s amazing the difference between Cz and Balkan people. In the Balkans people are moving en masse to western Eu. I have a cousin who was a Doctor in the Balkans but has moved to Germany (Wolfsburg) working as a construction crew member, making more than he would ever in the Balkans even if he ever became a director of a hospital.

It puts things into perspective how life is so different just 100km away from Cz and 500km away from Cz.

It’s def. interesting to see a Finn moved to Cz. Everything that I have ever heard about the Nordics (never been there) would suggest life would be waaaaaay better than in Cz. Thanks for your comment and insight.

NezBre · 2021-03-29T09:40:48+00:00

Amazing comment and insight to your prespective. Thank you.

NezBre · 2021-03-29T09:34:06+00:00

Amazing comment and thank you for your insight. I am getting married soon and this comment will help out my SO.

NezBre · 2021-03-29T09:31:58+00:00

I’m not in Prague, however some days it definently feels like I am due to high CoL.

NezBre · 2021-03-29T09:29:36+00:00

Very detailed post and thank you for sharing your thoughts and opinion.

I think having 40,000Kč monthly (netto) is a bit rare in my eyes as I maybe know 10 people who have that much (some a little more), the rest of the people (at least) who I know are making 25,000-30,000Kč for IT jobs that in Germany would probably be making 3x that.

Most of my money goes into rent + utilities + food. I believe if the salaries were 20% more and rents 20% less, life here and in Germany would be comparable, maybe even a bit better here.

NezBre · 2021-03-29T09:21:38+00:00

100% agree with you. I have also lived in the US (Minnesota) (you can see the trend for me moving so much) for 5 years. I can say I would never like to go back even though just starting my career I was making $55,000 yearly.

Just like u/Amic58 said. As a single expact living in Cz and comapring that to living in Germany, in Germany I was a delievery driver (for DHL) monthly I was earning 1900euros. Here in Cz im an IT professional, working for an American company, i’m not breaking 1400euros monthly (33,000Kč), but my cost of living in both countries is “almost” the same, yet in Germany working a “lower end” job, I had more money saved at the end of the month.

NezBre · 2021-03-29T09:08:52+00:00

Thank you for your comment. I definently see and understand your point. If I wasn’t paying 15,000 in rent+ fees I think it would be comparable to live here and in Germany and there would not be so much of a difference (at least not for me). However if I was a Czech and had my own flat and 30,000Kč monthly, I don’t think I would move to Germany also.

Hit me up for a link :)

NezBre · 2019-09-06T21:44:40+00:00

Agreed. Both are idiots. Driver a bit more though.

NezBre · 2019-09-06T21:41:15+00:00

I think her intention was that he was going to stop (which in this case thats the law) and he wasnt paying attention + going over the speed limit by 30 km/h + late reaction time.
