Ask HN: Compensation across EU/US and freelancing opportunities
I'm a Python backend engineer with around 5 yrs of freelancing experience. My current gig pays me £20/hr and since I'm living in a low COL European country, that's pretty good. The job might be coming to an end soon and I'm considering my options.
I want to hear your thoughts in terms of compensation. First, is £20/hr on-par with other companies based around London for my level of experience? Does it differ for employees/freelancers? Are there countries/specific industries across the EU which do remote work and pay well? Or should I focus more on the US market and specifically SV companies?
