Cisco Salary Survey

| Check out the results of Cisco's 2nd Annual Salary Survey at http://tcpmag.com/salarysurveys/
Here's a quote that puts it all together in a nutshell:
"....reminds us that it’s best not to get into this business strictly for the money"

| Hello,
hmm, so I could move jobs, work on the 'cheap' side and still double my current salary? :-)

| It makes me wonder what the figures are in the UK??
It looks like our salaries are less, but so is our national average. Our holidays are significantly better, 5 wks plus 10 bank holidays compared to 3 wks.
Whats a bonus though?? 
Anybody spot anything else? | |

| Great link man. I am thinking aobut seeking employment in asia(japan) after I graduate. Only I wont go where americans are getting decapitated. I am ccna and made about
$25000 U.S. last year. That looks to be waaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy below the average. | |

| ok, since you guys are still not happy with a 25K p.a., in india CCNA's get 2.5-3K p.a. roughly.
still not happy ??? | |

| hello Javed,
the sum is irrelevant unless you take the cost of living into account. 25K US$ probably doesn't give you much by way of housing, food, travel (to work and back), entertainment, holidays, etc in the US.
It's probably close to the 2.5K you'd get in India when you consider these costs there?
As you're now in London you may have noticed that the costs are much higher than back home? That's why you get paid more money but you're probably no better off.
I'm around 200 miles north of London and I pay far less for my house than people living down there. If I got a job in London I know that I'd need an extra 10K on my salary just to cover additional costs...
I'd be getting more money but have the same standard of living as I do here...
well actually it's better here as there's not so much traffic, crime, assylum-seekers, etc!
Regards
Peter |
